Summary
Scott Shin is a Senior Software Engineer in Los Angeles with 11 years of hands-on experience building full-stack web applications across Rails, React, Node, and a broad AWS portfolio. He has progressed from early full-stack roles to senior engineering at Medely, bringing practical production experience with serverless architectures, containerized AWS services, and frontend frameworks. Scott's humanities and sociology background informs a user-centered approach, motivating him to create web products that solve real-world problems rather than technical complexity for its own sake.

Comfortable in both backend infrastructure and polished UIs, he blends pragmatic engineering with continuous learning to adopt the right tool for each problem.
