About David Lewis

As a Senior Software Engineer at Workiva, I work on expanding, improving, and evolving our microfrontend architecture enabling transparent ESG and financial reporting worldwide. With 7+ years of experience, I architect solutions allowing TypeScript and Dart applications to work seamlessly together, accelerating enterprise technology adoption. In addition I have built and managed web applications from the ground up, configured and secured cloud infrastructure, onboarded and mentored junior engineers, and led the adoption and implementation of design systems and component libraries.What excites me most is building AI-augmented tools that help improve quality of life for others. I\'ve deployed a RAG-powered documentation system serving 800+ engineers, transforming how teams discover technical knowledge across our entire codebase.My expertise spans React, TypeScript, Python, AWS, vector databases, and large language models, all focused on what truly drives me: helping good people bring good ideas to life. I mentor engineers, establish AI best practices, and build solutions that put people first. I\'m a mission-driven engineer with an Environmental Science background, committed to technology that serves the greater good.
