Scott Sandler is a backend-focused software engineer with 14+ years building reliable, scalable systems across startups and large product teams, now contributing to Notion from Denver. He combines deep backend and infrastructure expertise—Go APIs, Google Cloud, Spanner, BigQuery, dbt—with hands-on experience in search, localization, and performance work from a long tenure at Slack. At Panobi he bridged analytics and AI by shipping an LLM-powered SQL generator and managing ELT pipelines, showing a knack for translating data problems into product features. His background includes platform-wide efforts: CI/CD redesigns, migrations (SVN→Git, FreeBSD→CentOS), and multi-datacenter database architectures, reflecting both sysadmin roots and architectural breadth. Scott is comfortable leading cross-functional initiatives and codifying processes (onboarding, hiring, promotion, architecture reviews) that scale engineering organizations. A BA in Mathematics underpins a pragmatic, analytical approach to solving complex production challenges.
