Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolTravis Nelson is a seasoned Chief Architect based in Denver with over two decades of experience designing and delivering cloud-native, microservices, and data platform solutions across startups and enterprise organizations. He has led engineering teams and architecture at Tackle.io, co-founded and built the backend and CI/CD for a hotel revenue analytics SaaS, and drove large-scale data and ETL initiatives at Sunrun and Tendril that reduced integration times from months to weeks. Comfortable hands-on in Node.js, Python, Java/Scala and AWS/GCP, he blends pragmatic system design with strong delivery discipline—implementing dozens of automated pipelines and migrations from monoliths to microservices. An active local tech community leader, he pairs an MBA in logistics with deep technical breadth, often focusing on making complex data flows reliable and deployable. A lifelong coder who “<3 Code,” he’s as likely to sketch an event-driven ETL as he is to mentor teams on operational excellence.
