Summary
👤
SeniorSteven Wichers is a hands-on technical leader and Director of Development based in Portland, Oregon, with over a decade of experience designing and delivering large-scale, high-reliability platforms. He specializes in solution architecture, CI/CD, and process governance, routinely choosing technologies and establishing standards that improve code quality and developer velocity. Steven has a track record of rescuing at-risk enterprise projects—securing multi-million dollar continuations—and architecting systems that handle hundreds of millions of secure transactions with 99.99% uptime. He’s driven organization-wide improvements from standardizing hundreds of projects to pioneering AI-assisted toolchains that shorten delivery cycles. Equally comfortable in the trenches or at the strategy table, he mentors teams to raise engineering maturity while still shipping robust production systems. A practical problem-solver with a flair for witty bios (GitHub: "Slayer of the werebeast"), he blends operational rigor with a creative, entrepreneurial background.
