About Me

Backend Developer!

Hey there, Hi, I'm Carisa. I'm a backend software developer who really likes systems thinking and simple architecture. I like breaking down problems, making smart data structures, and building the hidden layers that make great apps work.


I put code quality, test coverage, and performance first. I also think that the best solutions are often the simplest ones, when done right. I know how to make APIs, speed up queries, and make sure that services talk to each other well.


I'm a dog mom and a curious reader when I'm not working. I'd love to connect with you if you're looking for someone who has backend logic, pays attention to detail, and works well with others.
