I am Dane Ukken.

A curious and self-motivated developer with over 4 years of professional experience and master's degree in Computer Science from UT Dallas.

My expertise lies in designing and optimizing scalable, distributed systems, with proficiency in C#, Python, Java, and TypeScript. I excel in fast-paced environments, leveraging my problem-solving abilities and keen attention to detail to deliver robust, efficient solutions. My diverse skill set encompasses backend development, frontend development, cloud services, and microservices architecture.

At Fidelity Investments, I worked on complex, large-scale projects that required optimizing ETL pipelines and developing new microservices for critical business integrations. At Pushpay, I contributed to high-availability video streaming systems, leveraging Cloudflare Workers and event-driven design to deliver reliable, low-latency experiences to a global user base. As one of three senior engineers at Holiday Channel, a fast-paced startup, I played a key role in guiding the initial website launch, driving high output across independent workstreams, and providing technical direction that shaped the team’s execution.

As a versatile developer with a strong foundation in both front-end and back-end technologies, I am eager to tackle complex challenges and drive success in dynamic, agile environments.
