Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRJ Smith is a Lead Backend Developer with 11 years of experience building mobile-first, scalable systems and leading teams to production-grade AI services. At Voze he architected and shipped ASR/NLP pipelines using TypeScript, Python, Node.js, and spaCy while earlier work cut Android app load times by 80% and reduced upload errors from ~15% to ~2%. He started as a founding engineer, earned a BS in Information Systems and a part-time MS in Computer Science from Georgia Tech while growing a startup, and prefers the playful moniker "Magister Smith." RJ blends mobile and backend expertise—claiming a self-styled “full stack mobile” perspective—with a pragmatic focus on performance, data extraction, and automation. Outside work he channels creativity into indie game development and annual Lord of the Rings marathons with his dogs, a hint at his long-standing drive that began with coding film effects in high school.
