Summary
Reed Rodgers is a software consultant with eight years of experience applying management engineering and optimization thinking to build reliable data-driven systems. Based in Old Toronto, he has shipped production APIs, data pipelines, and frontend features—most recently consulting at Bit Complete after impactful co-op and internship roles at Grain Discovery and The Trade Desk. His background blends applied math and algorithms from University of Waterloo with hands-on engineering: deploying scrapers and cron jobs to Kubernetes, piping data into Postgres, and implementing RESTful services in Kotlin and Java. Reed pairs careful testing and DRY-focused refactors (he reduced a codebase by 50% at Grain Discovery) with the ability to ramp quickly into unfamiliar stacks to meet tight demo-driven deadlines. He also brings strong data-analysis experience from government and city roles, automating ETL and validation workflows so non-technical stakeholders can use complex datasets. Curious and communicative, he has taught colleagues programming fundamentals and translated domain problems into practical, maintainable software.
