Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSawyer Mclane is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building cloud-native Python systems, observability tooling, and data-driven internal platforms from startup to enterprise. He has a strong track record modernizing legacy stacks—rewriting async Python bots, introducing type checking and CI, and migrating billing scripts into a serverless FastAPI + Lambda architecture integrated with Odoo. Sawyer designs practical ML and AI tooling as well, having supported automated essay grading and built PromptFlow, an open-source FastAPI/Angular app for prototyping LLM data flows and orchestration. Comfortable across backend, DevOps, and embedded domains, he pairs hands-on implementation (Terraform, Kubernetes, Docker) with thoughtful automation that lets non-engineers safely change business logic. Based in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, he brings a blend of engineering rigor and product-minded pragmatism, often surfacing hidden efficiencies like data-driven billing parameters or warm-pooling caches to cut operational cost and latency.
