Jacob Hernandez

@jacobhernandez

Senior software engineer specializing in scalable full-stack web applications and cloud architectures.

What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles where I can lead full‑stack and cloud initiatives, mentor teams, modernize systems, and deliver scalable, data‑driven products in collaborative environments.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with over 10 years of experience architecting and delivering scalable full‑stack web applications using Python (Django, Flask, FastAPI), JavaScript/TypeScript, React, Node.js, and AWS. I focus on transforming ambiguous product requirements into robust technical designs and roadmaps that drive customer‑facing delivery.

Throughout my career I have built data‑driven platforms, modernized legacy systems, and implemented serverless and microservices architectures that improved performance and reduced costs (examples include reducing latency by 40% and cutting infrastructure costs by 20%). I leverage AI developer tools to accelerate development cycles and improve team productivity.

I mentor engineers, create technical playbooks, and institutionalize best practices while building CI/CD pipelines and observability for reliable production systems. I seek roles where I can lead complex engineering efforts, collaborate with cross‑functional teams, and deliver high‑impact products.
