Shawn Sullivan is a Senior Software Engineer with six years of experience who transitioned into software from a chemical engineering background, bringing a methodical, data-driven approach to building full-stack JavaScript applications. Based in Bend, Oregon, he has led frontend architecture and platform ownership at DigniFi—driving CI/CD, long-term infrastructure strategy, and complex geospatial merchant discovery features that tie React UIs to backend geospatial queries and Google Maps. He’s experienced across React, Node.js, SQL/noSQL, AWS, and end-to-end testing with Playwright, and has a track record of modernizing legacy frontends and integrating analytics like Tableau for partner-facing products. Earlier work includes architecting a documents builder and cross-product component library at Formstack and building a VC-matching app that combined web scraping, REST APIs, and scoring algorithms. His unusual blend of lab engineering rigor (ISO-regulated validation and calibration) and modern web engineering gives him a practical edge in building reliable, testable systems that scale. He’s inquisitive by nature and enjoys collaborating on product-led projects that connect technical depth with measurable business outcomes.
