# Evan Francis > Staff software engineer | Full-stack, DevEx, Platform Engineering Location: San Diego, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/evanfrancis Full stack staff software engineer with experience in enterprise fintech and software tooling to streamline engineering processes and developer productivity (DevEx). Recently that's meant exploring agentic coding systems and multi-agent workflows to increase developer output while focusing on validation and quality. I like solving big problems and helping teams move fast (without breaking things) across all parts of the stack and development workflow. A few things I've enjoyed in my career: • Created an open source integration testing framework for mission-critical CLI tools • Created an internal e2e automated testing framework to test web, iOS and Android applications with a unified API • Designed and maintained scalable front end architecture with TypeScript and React/React Native and Vue • Designed and implemented a proprietary domain-specific language (DSL) for automating real-time trading strategies • Built a dependency parsing system for an in-house proprietary Pascal-based DSL • Developed an iOS and Android app using React Native and GraphQL/Apollo • Developed and deployed Java microservices serving millions of users • Built many custom tools for build/CI pipelines • Implemented scalable and fault-tolerant serverless architecture I excel at product R&D, customer empathy and developing a product from an MVP to a fully functioning and scalable solution.
