Profile bio
About Tanner Edwards
Experienced engineer and leader with a passion for creating and seeing the results of hard work. I'm constantly driven to always ask if something can be done better or more efficiently. Since graduating with a BS in Management with an emphasis in Computer Science, I've spend years learning first hand what success looks like. Starting out as an Associate Engineer I've risen to Director of Engineering, stopping on nearly every stone along the way. I know how to identify and resolve organizational issues. I let data do the talking for me and love solutioning tough problems with my peers. I often err on the side of over communication and want to ensure that we are on the same page. I'm an avid user advocate and know how meaningful a good experience is. I'm passionate about quality, and I would rather do something the right way, rather than the fastest way. However, I haven't forgotten my roots and I still enjoying jumping into the code and getting my hands dirty.My second passion is teaching and helping others. I strongly believe that straight-forward candor and a caring demeaner are the best tools for clear communication and personal improvement. My strive for excellence and collaboration is always pushing me and others around me to do and be better.

Apr 2020 - Feb 2023
Manager, Software Architect
As the organization grew, new leadership roles were necessary. I was the natural choice as Engineering Manager as both a team and thought leader. I trained individuals on how they could improve their skills both in coding and in the Agile process. I was in charge of recruiting new talent and evaluating the performance of my direct reports..I did this while also functioning as the architect of all front-end technology in the company. I reviewed all new feature architecture across multiple teams; including offshore contractors, providing feedback to better put the organization on solid ground. I lead several key initiatives, including update the UI, underlying changeover, and internationalization.
May 2017 - Apr 2020
Senior Software Engineer
I joined a small team of 10+ engineers and quickly exceeded expectation and become the leading expert in front-end development. I led the effort to update front-end technology from Javascript to jQuery and add cross-browser support. I would do this same task years later, architecting the effort to rewrite the entire application to Angular (2+) including: defining the new architecture, training engineers, creating processes and standards, and enforcing all of the above through code reviews. I also filled the roles of Scrum Master, UI Designer, Product Owner, and Engineering Manager
