Steve Black is a senior software architect at Paytronix Systems with 11 years of experience designing and leading backend systems built on Scala/Java with MS SQL Server and MongoDB. He progressed from hands-on engineering to team lead and engineering manager roles, and now focuses on architecture and web service reliability. Steve combines technical depth with cross-functional leadership—he has led iOS development and email operations, and earlier experience in wealth-management sales gives him a client-focused perspective on product delivery. Based in Boston, he pairs an MS in Computer Science with a background in psychology and political science, bringing both analytical rigor and human-centered thinking to complex systems. Outside work he channels competitive drive into cycling and team sports, a hint at his collaborative, performance-oriented approach.
