Summary
Zachary Davis is a Senior Full-Stack Developer in Portland with 11 years of experience building pragmatic web applications and tooling for artists, museums, and businesses. He combines front-end ownership of high-scale SaaS products—handling millions of records and complex data visualizations—with hands-on back-end work and cost-conscious infrastructure improvements. His background spans agency work, interactive video ad platforms, and cultural institutions, and he’s comfortable moving between product teams and experimental projects such as a TypeScript ECS and client-side deep learning prototypes. Trained as an artist (MFA Photomedia) and steeped in practical engineering, he brings a designer’s attention to accessibility, performance, and editorial workflows while still diving into scraping, server code, and odd technical problems others avoid.
