Abanob Mikaeel

Full-stack software engineer based out of New Jersey, working mostly on the backend.

I'm a Vice President and Senior Software Engineer at Bessemer Trust, where I build client-facing platforms and the infrastructure behind them, mostly Typescript/Node.js, AWS, Terraform, GraphQL.

A decade in, the work I care about most is the layer underneath: infrastructure that provisions itself, APIs that hold up under real traffic, and pipelines that make shipping boring.

I love performance work: measuring systems that are slow, finding out exactly where the time goes, and making them as fast as they can be when there's room to.

Outside of work I build open-source infrastructure for the Coptic community: coptic.io and Nofri.
