Profile: https://flows.cv/nathanielcoln

I’m a Software Engineer who thrives on solving complex, multi-layered problems and creating systems that turn complexity into clarity. For me, engineering is both craftsmanship and problem-solving, breaking challenges down step by step, uncovering the root cause, and building solutions that are reliable, resilient, and impactful.

My experience spans both defense and finance, where I’ve strengthened mission-critical health systems, automated high-volume processes, improved security and compliance, and designed architectures that support data flows end to end, from frontend displays to distributed processing to database storage. Along the way, I’ve honed a toolkit that includes Java, Python, Bash, Ansible, Angular, and PostgreSQL, among others.

What sets me apart is how I approach challenges: I see them as opportunities to design something meaningful. Whether debugging distributed systems or building new capabilities, my goal is to create solutions that not only solve technical puzzles but also empower people, making their work easier, more effective, and more powerful.

## Work Experience
### Software Engineer @ Sabre Systems, LLC
Jan 2024 – Present | Patuxent River, Maryland, United States
In my role as a Software Engineer, I create and refine solutions within Application Based Architecture (ABA) that improve the P-8A Poseidon’s operational capabilities. My work centers on solving complex integration challenges and ensuring the performance of mission-critical systems in collaboration with NAVAIR PMA-290.

Highlights:

• Built reliable data synchronization between ABA and the mission system, delivering nearly 100% accuracy in operator health data.

• Automated deployments with Bash, Python, and Ansible — improving installs, credential management, filesystem permissions, and cleanup across hypervisors, VMs, and containers.

• Strengthened security by upgrading servers to TLS and remediating EvaluateSTIG findings, raising compliance to 96–98%.

• Developed a repeatable PostgreSQL restoration process to ensure rapid recovery of mission data and improved system observability.

• Enhanced usability for operators by redesigning key portions of the health monitoring interface with Angular and TypeScript.

• Collaborated across teams to tackle distributed-system issues, ensuring system reliability in high-stakes mission environments.

### Software Developer @ Bessemer Trust
Jan 2022 – Jan 2024 | Woodbridge, New Jersey, United States
During my time as a Junior Developer at Bessemer Trust, I worked closely with analysts and developers to resolve production challenges, optimize ETL processes, and build automation tools that replaced manual tasks. This work enhanced system performance, increased efficiency, and strengthened data integrity within the Investment Management Suite.

Highlights:

• Supported 16+ investment management applications by resolving 40–50 production issues weekly in fast-paced trading environments.

• Monitored and maintained ETL pipelines in production and QA, troubleshooting failures and refining automation scripts to improve reliability.

• Queried and updated Oracle and SQL Server databases to support live trade operations and deliver time-sensitive reports.

• Automated manual processes with PowerShell, reducing recurring task time by 45% and saving 30+ minutes daily.

• Built a reconciliation tool to validate 500+ financial documents, reducing correction time by 87% and completing deliverables two months ahead of schedule.

• Partnered with analysts and traders to deliver technical solutions that improved efficiency and data accuracy.

### Software Engineer Intern @ Broadridge
Jan 2021 – Jan 2021 | Newark, New Jersey, United States
During my internship at Broadridge, I supported the Digital Information Onboarding team by configuring clients on the communications platform based on their delivery preferences. I worked with Spring Boot, JDBC, and SQL to ensure smooth client integration and deployment.

Highlights:

• Built a web service for E-Delivery billing that retrieved Artifact JSON data via GET API, integrated it with REST controllers, and validated functionality through Postman testing.

• Designed and implemented a full Spring MVC architecture and POST API for the Delivery Manager, automating client request verification and processing.

• Integrated deployments through Jenkins CI/CD, streamlining delivery changes and reducing manual effort.
