Summary
Sheila Babadi is a software engineer with a decade of experience building developer-focused tooling and cloud-native services, currently contributing to Hasura Cloud’s managed GraphQL platform. She co-created Gander, a drop-in solution that automates review app builds and deployments via GitHub Actions and AWS, and led its ECS/EFS-based infrastructure design to deliver scalable, fault-tolerant previews with automated cleanup to avoid bill shock. Comfortable across Ruby, JavaScript/TypeScript, Go, Docker, and AWS, she blends backend systems work with front-end and CLI UX to simplify other engineers’ workflows. Based in Jacksonville with roots in Chicago and a CS degree from the University of Florida, she pairs production-grade engineering with a knack for clear documentation and developer experience improvements. Beyond code, she’s an avid hiker, gamer, and powerlifter—details that hint at persistence, strategic play, and an appetite for long-term challenges.
