Summary
Michael Brogdon is a Senior Software Engineering Manager based in Denver with eight years of formal experience and a long tenure leading engineering teams at Monotype. He blends hands-on engineering in C++11/14, C#, Java, .NET Core and Node.js with strong DevOps practices—CI/CD pipelines (primarily Jenkins), Docker, and test-driven development—to deliver reliable, production-ready software. A certified Scrum Product Owner and Scrum Master, he excels at optimizing team throughput and morale using Kanban and Scrum in JIRA, and he’s continually focused on becoming a better team player and coach. His background in Electrical and Computer Engineering gives him a systems-oriented perspective that informs pragmatic architecture and tooling decisions. Colleagues would describe him as a process-minded leader who prioritizes developer happiness as much as shipping quality code. He often surfaces small process improvements that materially increase team efficiency while keeping long-term maintainability in focus.
