Jake Calkins

Full Stack Software Engineer

About

I'm a Full‑Stack Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience building cloud‑native services and modernizing legacy systems. I deliver accessible front‑end experiences and scalable, maintainable backends. UX is my passion.

I'm a CICS Alumnus from the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

What I do

  • Innovation & AI: Deliver forward-thinking solutions. Leverage AI tools to accelerate delivery while maintaining security, code quality, and long‑term maintainability.
  • Frontend & UX: Focus on user needs. Design and ship accessible, testable, component‑driven interfaces.
  • Cloud & Microservices: Build resilient, scalable systems that run reliably in serverless and traditional environments.
  • Delivery & DevEx: Improve productivity and release reliability via CI/CD, quality gates, and developer tooling.
