Sally Mcnichols is a Senior Software Engineer based in Chicago with 11 years of experience building reliable production systems across finance and large-scale consumer services. After contributing to core MongoDB server features as an intern, she progressed through JVM-based trading systems at IMC and now focuses on Translate production and site reliability at Google. Her background spans backend Java services, SRE practices for high-availability systems, and hands-on experience shipping aggregation/query features and crash-reporting infrastructure. Comfortable moving between fast-paced trading tech and hyperscale services, she brings a blend of low-level systems thinking and product-focused delivery. An under-the-radar strength is her early research lab experience, which hints at methodical problem solving and a habit of turning experiments into repeatable processes.
