Glade Lynch

I'm a senior full stack developer with a passion for systems and solutions.

Solve problems, not symptoms!

Dedicated to the ethos of “solve problems, not symptoms” I have cultivated a reputation as a seasoned developer and effective leader. As a developer, I have a love for the foundational architecture of programming languages, allowing me to understand both why a problem surfaced as well as how it should be solved. I believe there is an elegant, performant, and scalable solution to every problem. To find those solutions, I break down intricate problems into workable pieces without losing sight of the bigger picture. This skill underpins my ability to lead teams, mentor other developers, and ensure the long-term success of projects both large and small. I believe in servant leadership and acting and responding first with humility and curiosity. This coupled with my unwavering commitment to my team manifests remarkable relationships and outcomes.
