Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolSteven Garberg is a pragmatic engineering leader and founder who currently serves as Head of Engineering at Rivia Health, driving architecture and delivery for healthcare SaaS products. In under five years of senior leadership roles he has rearchitected services for async distributed systems, migrated platforms to .NET 8, and led PCI-compliant payment and EHR integrations that materially expanded product capabilities. He combines hands-on development (frequent contributor to codebases) with team building and operational improvements that produced a tenfold efficiency gain in client onboarding tools. As founder of HootBooks and owner of indie game studio Gigabite Games, he blends product-minded entrepreneurship with a background in game and web development across Unity, .NET, Azure, CosmosDB, and PostgreSQL. Based in Lakeland, Florida, he pairs an MS in Engineering Management with a track record of translating regulatory, security, and performance constraints into practical, scalable systems. Notably, he has driven both consumer-facing UI overhauls and low-level backend optimizations, reflecting a rare working-manager ethos.
