Senior🎓
Top SchoolTJ Bearse is a Senior Software Engineer with 12 years of full-stack experience building web and game tooling across startups and large studios, currently driving product and architecture at AcuityMD. He blends frontend and backend fluency—React, TypeScript, GraphQL, Node, Postgres—with systems work in C++/C# from his game-engine days, enabling both rapid product discovery and reliable operations. TJ has a track record of lifting service reliability (raising request success from 98% to 99.9%), shipping data-model features that unlocked premium packaging, and designing interactive geo-visualization editors. He’s comfortable managing director- and executive-level stakeholders while mentoring teams and shaping SDLC and release practices. Based in the Portland area but open to Pittsburgh or remote roles, he’s a curious tinkerer who keeps most of his experiments private on GitHub, favoring thoughtful trade-offs over flashy open-source noise.
