Cooper McLean

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with over 4 years of professional software development experience, focused on scalable features, clean architecture, and code quality. I’m proficient in Java, AWS, and distributed systems, including APIs and databases, and I bring a verification-first mindset to how I ship.

Most recently, at Oculogica, I implemented platform-wide UI architecture by translating Figma design systems into production-ready code. I built reusable components and dynamic modals using Vue.js and React Native for web and mobile, then improved performance and maintainability through standardized component structures and documentation.

Earlier, at PersonalAI, I developed backend services with Ruby on Rails 7 (API-only) using PostgreSQL, Redis, and Sidekiq. I integrated Active Storage with AWS S3, built webhook pipelines for device telemetry ingestion, and deployed scalable workflows on AWS using EC2 with ALB and Lambda preprocessing—working closely with the technical founder to deliver investor-driven features under tight timelines.

I’ve also supported high-impact product work—from real-time computer vision alerts at Ambient AI, where I designed visual detection workflows with Konva.js and co-led v2.0 analytics dashboards using React, Material UI, TypeScript, and GraphQL. As the first developer at a YC-backed startup (TopFunnel), I built full-stack infrastructure with React, Node.js, PostgreSQL, Python, and TensorFlow, and developed AI-powered NLP tools for automated recruiter outreach.
