Brandon Harper
Software Engineer in Denver, Colorado
I'm a curious, lifelong learner who has built software professionally for 25+ years.
My career has primarily been focused on the middle ground between software and the systems they run on. I tend to end up being a unique engineer on a team who has experience with and understands the full picture of how modern software works. I'm a big picture and systems thinker, but also able to dive into complex problems and solve them.
That includes things like networking, DNS, operating systems, scalability, software engineering, agile development, software performance, database platforms, caching, etc to make services run predictably and reliably at scale.
Currently focused on designing, building, scaling, and cost-optimizing cloud-based services, products, and platforms while leading distributed teams. Additionally, I bring a wealth of expertise from my extensive history in the JVM space.
