Summary
Pete Klein is a Senior Software Engineer based in Minneapolis with over a decade of hands-on full-stack experience building web applications and marketing systems since 2006. He has led front-end teams and shipped products across agencies and enterprise software firms, using JavaScript, PHP, Ruby, .NET, and modern frameworks like Vue, React, Nuxt, and Angular. Pete’s work spans e-commerce, loyalty and staffing platforms, VR experiences, and geo-enabled scheduling systems—demonstrating a knack for pragmatic solutions that blend UX design with backend integrations (Stripe, AWS, Twilio). At NextEra Analytics he continues to apply that breadth to analytics-driven products, while earlier roles involved building multilingual responsive sites and automated email build systems. Known for pairing creativity (UX and visual design background) with disciplined engineering, he also brings scripting and ops skills (Bash, deployment on Heroku/EC2) that keep projects shipping. Outside work he’s a Minneapolis enthusiast who bikes around the city and balances technical rigor with a dry sense of humor and famously bad dad puns.
