Jose Camacho

I’m a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 13+ years building and operating production Ruby on Rails SaaS platforms. I enjoy owning systems end-to-end—from architecture and backend services to microservices, modern frontends, enterprise integrations, infrastructure, and production operations.

Over the years, I’ve partnered directly with founders to deliver business-critical features. As the sole engineer for a production Rails SaaS, I owned architecture, development, infrastructure, deployments, third-party integrations, and day-to-day production operations.

I’ve led major platform improvements, including Rails upgrades, automated testing, CI/CD adoption, payment gateway migration, marketing automation integrations, and a zero-downtime frontend redesign. I also delivered admissions-planning functionality across 60 major universities and supported payment processing with 1,000+ successful transactions annually.

In more recent work, I’ve engineered identity and integrations at scale—architecting SAML SSO for Okta and Microsoft Entra ID and implementing SCIM 2.0 provisioning/deprovisioning. I’ve also built an MCP server with authentication and structured tools, redesigned a Slack integration with Block Kit, and led incremental migrations (including an application-wide Bootstrap 5 update) while maintaining uninterrupted production availability.
