Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolRichard Szabo is a polyglot Staff Software Engineer based in Budapest with over a decade of hands-on experience building backend systems in Ruby and Node.js and a strong craftsmanship mindset. He has driven test-driven development and raised unit test coverage to near 80% in legacy systems, designed serverless AWS Lambdas, and built resilient BFF and API services used by thousands of customers. Richard pairs engineering leadership—coaching teams through agile transformation and growing mobile teams rapidly—with pragmatic product thinking, having shipped features that reduced print collateral generation times and enabled large-scale fintech and real estate apps. He’s experienced in compliance-sensitive integrations and GDPR-aware logging, and has migrated substantial codebases (including JS→TypeScript) while introducing telemetry and incident response practices. Comfortable switching roles from iOS tech lead to backend architect, he quietly favors automating developer workflows and has open-sourced tooling used across multiple apps.
