Tulsa, Oklahoma, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRay Johnson is a Software Engineer III with nine years of experience building cloud-native, data-driven applications and automation using Python, React/TypeScript, and infrastructure as code on AWS and Azure. At Principal Financial Group he helped design an AWS CDK, event-driven solution that managed millions of dollars and eliminated the need for three full-time hires, while also building CI/CD pipelines and maintaining hybrid queue systems. His background blends data engineering—ETL, SSIS/SSAS, data warehouses and geospatial analysis—with production ML deployments and API integrations, making him a bridge between analytics and application engineering. Certified in both Azure and AWS, he’s comfortable across serverless, containerized, and traditional compute environments and frequently wrangles heterogeneous data sources. A lifelong learner with formal training in information science and AI programming, he pairs technical depth with an unusual sensitivity for operational efficiency and data-driven decision-making.
