# Hunter Leeves > Senior Software Engineer | Engineering Manager Location: Austin, Texas, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/hunterleeves Howdy! I'm an experienced engineer that loves solving hard problems with smart, humble people. Lately I've been particularly stoked by the complexities of distributed systems and how to solve problems with large amounts of data moving at scale. I truly enjoy working across the stack and have experience with a lot of tech, largely Typescript, RESTful APIs, SQL/noSQL databases, Node.js, and React. I recently dove into Swift/iOS which was rad--and generally love to learn new languages/frameworks to try and find the best tool for the job. ## Work Experience ### Senior Software Engineer @ DeepScribe Jan 2022 – Jan 2024 Wore all-of-the-fullstack-hats while working to scale our system to onboard enterprise level clients: new backend services and critical/complicated migrations, new and complex frontend tools, diving into the Swift/iOS ecosystem, hunting down abstract issues in cloudwatch logs, etc. I also worked closely with hospital partners and doctors to vet the validity of a feature I co-led and implemented, which was a highlight of my time as I got feedback directly from users and was able to iterate on what really made the product better. ### Engineering Manager @ iFIT Jan 2021 – Jan 2022 Had a blast managing teams of backend engineers through a rollercoaster of user growth on our exercise equipment post-covid. Some of my favorite work of my career was done at this time, mentoring and serving wicked-smart and kind people while we tackled the enormous challenges of scaling our backend systems to handle a massive increase in concurrent users. ### Chapter Lead @ iFIT Jan 2021 – Jan 2021 Worked for a bit in a hybrid role of management/IC, where I still developed 50% of the time, but also had a 7 reports . ### Full Stack Software Engineer @ iFIT Jan 2020 – Jan 2021 Worked across the stack on core webviews on excercise machines during a period of high-user growth during covid. Had a blast implementing react query to solve some tricky state-management problems, as well as implementing workouts as a series/set-of-challenges to complete to earn badges/rewards. ### Software Engineer @ Classworks Jan 2019 – Jan 2020 Converted educational flash games to Javascript using the Cocos 2dx framework (quite a frontend challenge at times), as well as a suite of tools for teachers and students to manage their social/emotional learning in React. ### Full Stack Software Engineer - Contracted @ FireconTX Jan 2018 – Jan 2019 | Austin, Texas Area Built a payment processing system so clients could pay their bills via website. A contracted position. ### Software Engineering Associate Instructor @ Hack Reactor Jan 2018 – Jan 2019 | Austin, Texas Tutored folks going through the program in group and 1-1 settings. ### English Teacher @ Westlake High School Jan 2014 – Jan 2018 Taught the wonders of reading and writing with joy and empathy. ## Education ### Bachelor of Arts - BA in English Language and Literature/Letters The University of Texas at Austin Jan 2011 – Jan 2014 ### Advanced Software Engineering Immersive Hack Reactor ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/hunter-leeves-2b8602166 --- Source: https://flows.cv/hunterleeves JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/hunterleeves/resume.json Last updated: 2026-03-22
