Taylor Hayduk is a Principal Software Engineer and founder with 11+ years building full-stack products and scaling startups, currently splitting time between leading engineering at Wealth.com and running BestPractice, a healthcare-focused billing startup. He brings hands-on expertise across UX, database architecture, DevOps, and compliance (SOC 2, HIPAA, FHIR), and has shipped consumer-scale systems like Arby’s online ordering as well as payment portals in Vue/TypeScript. As a founding engineer and technical leader at companies like Tourial and SimpleShowing, he has taken products from zero to launch while keeping production systems reliable under ambiguity. Taylor’s operator-founder perspective means he pairs technical depth with customer empathy—he’s comfortable talking to clinicians one day and debugging deployments the next. Beyond code, his background in leadership, teaching, and running cross-country tours reveals a knack for coaching, logistics, and calm decision-making under pressure. Based in Atlanta, he balances relentless follow-through with a practical focus on solving real problems for people and systems.
