Jared Austin

I've led Python/FastAPI microservices work at Northwell Health, establishing API standards, secure REST patterns, code reviews, and architectural decision records for a maintainable platform.

I built async PostgreSQL data-processing services that improved throughput by about 2.3x, introduced OpenTelemetry and Prometheus/Grafana observability that cut mean time to detect by about 30%, and reduced infrastructure spend by about 15% through compute right-sizing and query optimization. I also delivered an AI-assisted internal workflow with LLM guardrails, redaction, and audit logs that saved 6–8 engineer-hours each week.

At intelliflo, I developed Django/FastAPI services and a Flutter/Dart mobile experience spanning iOS and Android, improving feature delivery across platforms. Earlier roles at Affinitiv and Microsoft strengthened my experience in backend integrations, relational data design, Azure services, authentication, telemetry, testing, and production reliability.

I'm a product-minded engineer who balances delivery speed, technical debt, security, operational cost, and long-term ownership.
