Abby McNaron

Senior Software Engineer

I am a highly skilled software developer with over 13 years of experience in multiple industries working on web services and backend systems.

My responsibilities over my career have included developing and providing ongoing support for services required to handle hundreds of millions of requests ensuring efficient, reliable, and accurate data processing. I have also maintained secure data storage on servers and databases. I am experienced in project management as well, having voluntarily assumed duties related to project planning and implementation.

My primary programming languages are Java and Python, although I have some experience with others. I continue to ensure that I am current with cybersecurity best practices and look for opportunities with emerging technical architecture innovations.

I work well independently and take the initiative, maintaining effective communication. I also willingly offer assistance to colleagues, providing any support they require. Management has recognized my attention to detail and the high quality of my deliverables.
