Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBen Ayers-glassey is a versatile software engineer with a decade of hands-on experience building and maintaining full-stack systems, from Python/Django microservices to JVM-based integrations and high-volume payments platforms. He thrives in small, autonomous teams where he can own features end-to-end, work directly with clients, and shape requirements and design. Known for untangling legacy “spaghetti” code, he also writes clear documentation and tooling that teammates routinely rely on. His background spans cloud and infra (AWS, Docker, BigQuery), backend systems (Celery, Redis, PostgreSQL) and frontend work (React, ES6), plus niche integrations like HL7 and ISO-8583. At companies from startups to larger orgs he’s often been the first point of contact for stakeholders and the person who quickly gets productive on unfamiliar codebases. He pairs a mathematician’s attention to detail with a pragmatic focus on shipping reliable, auditable software.
