# Michael Schumacher > Senior Software Engineer Location: Lancaster, Pennsylvania, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/michaelschumacher I'm a software engineer who is always seeking the opportunity to develop with new technologies, to work on challenging projects, and to give back to my community. When I am not working I enjoy tinkering with computers, networking, and cloud services at home, traveling, photography, playing with dogs, and binging any TV show I can get my hands on. ## Work Experience ### Senior Software Engineer @ Humata Health Jan 2023 – Present Led the migration of the Prior Authorization Automation product from a manual, VM-based infrastructure to a Terraform-defined architecture hosted in Microsoft Azure, improving scalability and reducing operational cost.
