Senior🎓
Top SchoolEdward Anderson is a pragmatic Lead Software Engineer with 13 years of experience building reliable systems across startups and large companies, currently leading fraud-detection engineering at Capital One. A serial founder (AwareOps, GainKnowHow, Taskflow) he blends product-minded engineering with operational tooling—building downtime detection and internal knowledge platforms to keep teams aligned. He’s comfortable across the stack, from Ruby on Rails and complex SQL to modern backend services, and has shipped mobile and web products for enterprise clients. Based in Breckenridge, Colorado, Edward pairs a curiosity-driven polymath mindset with a preference for simplicity and smart design. Unusually for an engineering lead, his academic background in economics and study of Chinese economic growth give him a quantitative, systems-thinking perspective on product and risk.
