Peter Dietz is a seasoned full-stack software developer with 16 years of experience building maintainable, testable systems across Python, Java, Rails, React, and mobile platforms. Currently at Arcadia.io he focuses on tools for population health data analysis, drawing on prior work modernizing cloud infrastructure, AWS Lambda microservices, and API-driven mobile experiences at companies like OnShift and Longsight. He contributes to open-source back-end projects such as the widely used DSpace repository, improving import processes and REST endpoints. Comfortable diagramming architecture with teams and mentoring peers, he pairs pragmatic engineering with a taste for clean design and adaptive solutions like ML-driven web crawling. Based in Cleveland, he favors simple, auditable approaches—automated deploys, Terraform-managed infra, and feature-flagged releases—that make complex systems easier to operate.
