Tyler Peckenpaugh is a Lead Software Engineer based in New York with 11 years of experience building and operating production systems across startups and scale-ups. Currently on Pager’s architecture team, he combines hands-on coding with platform-level thinking—writing, testing, refactoring, and deleting code to keep systems lean and reliable. He has led teams and projects that reduced CI/CD times from 90+ minutes to 10 minutes, implemented auditable production tooling with RBAC, and drove SRE improvements that cut toil and incidents. His background spans full-stack services, distributed event-driven systems on AWS, Terraform modularization, and developer-focused tooling. Trained as a linguist (PhD/MPhil), he brings a researcher's rigor to debugging and documentation, often translating complex requirements into pragmatic, observable solutions. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic architecture decisions that balance safety, speed, and maintainability.
