Top SchoolSean Driedger-bauer is a Rails-focused software engineer with 10 years of experience building large-scale server systems, application security, and education technology. He has led teams and served as scrum master on mission-critical projects—most notably shaping Rosetta Stone’s LMS used by tens of thousands of institutions and leading authentication and fraud-detection efforts for nearly a million Zipcar users. Currently contributing to infrastructure at Khan Academy, he blends deep Ruby/Rails expertise with low-level systems experience from earlier C++ work at Endeca. Sean is as comfortable architecting APIs and CI systems as he is mentoring cross-functional teams and instituting knowledge-sharing programs that scale. Based in Minneapolis with a Software Engineering degree from the University of Waterloo, he brings a pragmatic security-first mindset to building reliable, testable systems for education and consumer platforms.
