Summary
Philip Davis is an award-winning principal software developer with 12+ years of experience building full-stack web, Windows, and cloud solutions, currently leading remote development at MAD Elevator. He specializes in React/TypeScript, Redux, GraphQL, WebRTC and AWS, but brings deep C# and native C++ experience—particularly for video systems—gained from rewriting complex video management clients and backend APIs. Comfortable driving large projects end-to-end, he pairs a pragmatic "right vs. done" mindset with a strong focus on user experience and maintainable code, and has a track record of measurable operational impact (e.g., doubling throughput for a manufacturing client). A seasoned remote worker and mentor, he thrives in small-to-medium profitable businesses where software is the core product and enjoys improving developer workflows through CI/CD and cloud tooling.
