Taylor Petrychyn is a Senior Software Developer with 11 years of experience designing and operating distributed, event-driven backend systems and large-scale computing platforms. He has led backend technical direction for high-profile consumer products, notably shaping NBA Top Shot features and managing $250M in customer assets, and now contributes at OpenSea. Taylor has a track record of driving significant operational improvements—at AWS he engineered a configuration cache that cut server costs by $800k/year and resolved a system-wide load-balancing bottleneck. Comfortable across languages and stacks from Go and Java to Node.js and SQL, he pairs pragmatic engineering with product-minded delivery from startups to hyper-growth teams. Based in Regina, he balances rigorous systems thinking with a human touch—his GitHub bio’s friendly "reminder to drink water" hints at a down-to-earth approach to high-stakes engineering.
