Hi, I'm Jordan.
I build software
that holds up.

I'm a full-stack developer with 3+ years shipping production software, from ASP.NET / C# APIs and Blazor apps to the Azure DevOps pipelines that deploy them. I love taking the lead on planning, testing, and the details that make a codebase pleasant to work in a year later.

What I do

I build the backend, and the pipeline that ships it.

My work sits where application code meets delivery. APIs, data, front-ends, and the CI/CD that carries all of it to production.

APIs & Backend

RESTful services in ASP.NET/C# and Go: split-level architecture, real-time via SignalR, and SQL Server tuned with stored procedures and views.

Full-Stack Apps

Blazor and React front-ends built against the APIs I write, with end-to-end ownership from data model to the interface people actually use.

CI/CD & DevOps

40+ Azure DevOps pipelines across multiple environments, plus the Agile planning, testing, and docs that keep projects maintainable.

Experience
Now Indium Corporation Software Developer II Since July 2024 · New Hartford, NY

Most of what I build at Indium never ends up in a screenshot. It's the connective tissue: the APIs, the databases behind them, and the pipelines that get 40-some applications into production.

My focus right now is a global HR system for managing Indium's employees. Before that, the biggest piece was a state-management system that tracks the live status of more than 10,000 tools on the production floor, built on ASP.NET and C# APIs over SQL Server queries I tuned along the way. Delivery for all of those apps runs through Azure DevOps pipelines I helped standardize across environments.

The rest is the stuff that makes a codebase easier to live with a year from now. I push for split-level API architecture, automated tests and real documentation, and I help plan the sprints.

Before Huntington Ingalls Industries Software Developer 2023 to 2024 · Rome, NY

At HII I built the platform underneath a Unity application: an ASP.NET REST API with more than 50 routes, and a SignalR server for real-time notifications.

The project involved AI-driven gameplay with an outside community of contractors. I wrote a sample C# agent that could play on its own against people or other AIs, served as the community's main technical contact, ran its competitions, and built the data visualizations that came out of them.

When our lead went on leave, I ran the team in the meantime and helped new people get up to speed faster.

About

The short version

I came into software from a business background and never looked back. Turns out the instinct for "what does this actually need to do for people" translates well to building it. I gravitate toward the leadership end of a project: estimating and planning, pushing for architecture that won't hurt in a year, and treating tests and docs as part of the deliverable, not a chore afterward. Outside of work I'm usually building something small in a new language (Go, Rust, Swift) just to keep the edges sharp.
