Senior🎓
Top SchoolRodney Barnes is a Senior Software Architect based in Hamilton, Ontario with a decade of hands-on experience designing databases and full-stack systems in agile environments. He is known as a "get it done" technical leader who excels at triaging unfamiliar codebases, reducing technical debt, and restoring delivery velocity for engineering teams. His toolkit spans Xamarin cross-platform mobile, C#.NET, SQL Server (including SSRS/SSIS), Rust for niche services, and experience with micro-frontends and event-driven architectures. At Weever he led an 8-dev team, slashed PR backlogs, introduced pairing and senior-only merges, and built E2E QA and production smoke tests to catch failures early. Rodney combines deep data modeling and ETL expertise with pragmatic system fixes that often turn week-long processes into minute-scale automations. Outside core engineering he brings communication and mentoring strengths rooted in a varied background from journalism to operations, which helps him translate complex technical work into business impact.
