Top SchoolSara Montecino is a versatile software engineer with a decade of experience building and leading teams across embedded systems, full-stack platforms, and DevOps workflows. She led software development for Starlink user terminals at SpaceX and now applies that systems-level rigor at Hadrian, bringing fast iteration and production discipline to complex hardware-software products. A pragmatic polyglot, she has shipped consumer NFC payments, VR/AR experiences, and backend platforms while also improving CI/CD and test infrastructure in prominent open-source projects like bosh-bootloader. Known for quickly absorbing patterns from one domain and reapplying them to another, she blends hands-on coding with architectural thinking and cross-team coordination. Based in Los Angeles, she pairs a humanities-and-math background with relentless curiosity and a track record of simplifying brittle codebases into maintainable systems.
