Summary
Dan Rigsby is a seasoned Software Architect with over 17 years in building scalable web and SaaS architectures, currently driving cloud-native transformation at Salesforce. He blends deep .NET roots and Microsoft MVP experience with modern Linux-based stacks—Node.js, Scala, React/Angular, Java and AWS—moving teams toward Kubernetes, 12-factor design, and resilient distributed systems. Dan has repeatedly led architecture and platform efforts, from multi-tenant SOA and RESTful API design to build/deploy automation and large-scale backend services. He also runs a consulting and speaking LLC, mentors teams, and brings a pragmatic, community-oriented approach to solving technical and organizational challenges. Less obvious: he balances high-velocity engineering with developer experience improvements, having created custom DSLs, cross-cutting frameworks, and deployment tooling that standardized practices across large teams. Based in Indianapolis, he combines hands-on coding with strategic leadership to help companies realize the potential of software.
