Senior🎓
Top SchoolTim Standen is a Senior Full Stack Software Engineer based in Portland with six years of experience building scalable, production web systems using React, TypeScript, Ruby, C#, and SQL. He’s delivered high-throughput APIs and data models—designing Postgres schemas and GraphQL endpoints that handle millions of records and thousands of requests per second—and transformed frontend performance by cutting page loads from ~20s to ~0.5s. Comfortable in both startup and enterprise environments, he has migrated monoliths to service-oriented APIs, redesigned complex UIs for clarity, and worked closely with cross-functional teams to ship reliable SaaS products. Tim’s background in Computer Science and History gives him a pragmatic, user-centered approach to problem solving and a taste for digging into the “why” behind system complexity.
