Summary
Leo Crossman is a software engineer with eight years of experience who combines a mathematics background with hands-on work across React, Node, TypeScript, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Docker, and AWS to build scalable, automated systems. He is the creator of Qache, an open-source, zero-dependency JavaScript caching library that demonstrated a measurable 61% query-time improvement in a demo and includes both LRU and LFU eviction strategies plus a 50+ test Jest suite. Currently at Codesmith in New York, Leo focuses on developer tooling and full-stack performance, and has experience integrating GraphQL and building production-ready caching nodes tailored to different workloads. He’s also contributed to multiple open-source projects, applying secure database practices and reusable SCSS theming in consumer-facing apps. Colleagues note his knack for turning theoretical math discipline into pragmatic, well-tested solutions that speed development and reduce runtime costs.
