Summary
Sean Dean is a Development Manager and senior PHP developer with over a decade of experience architecting data import/export solutions, PHP MVC applications, and MySQL data models for client-facing websites. Based in the Greater Seattle area, he combines hands-on coding in PHP, JavaScript/AJAX, and module development with DevOps and team leadership at SiteCrafting. His background spans full-stack responsibilities from IT infrastructure and CMS development to custom module work for Drupal and proprietary CMSes, giving him a pragmatic grasp of both legacy systems and modern workflows in SVN and Git. Comfortable translating complex data requirements into reliable import/export pipelines, he’s equally at home mapping databases as mentoring engineers. An uncommon aspect of his profile is a parallel academic trajectory in theology (MA and doctoral studies), which suggests strong analytical writing and ethical framing skills that inform his leadership and decision-making.
