About
Mike Allison
Staff / Principal Software Engineer · United States
I'm a web application architect and lead developer with 25+ years of professional software experience — end-to-end full-stack across architecture, framework and API design, single-page applications, dynamic content rendering, and performance optimization.
My career spans EdTech, healthcare, contract management, global non-profits, and music software, with deep operational experience on AWS, Vercel, and Terraform. Most recently I've focused on AI-augmented product surfaces and developer tooling — including the agent that powers the homepage of this site.
