About Spencer Caldwell

I am a software engineer and leader. I focus on working across teams to build elegant and effective user interfaces and robust, well-organized back-end services. I am continually learning about cutting edge technologies, and am committed to building software that solves real problems and makes the world a better place. For the last year, I pursued a lifelong passion for buses and transit and worked as a city bus driver for MTS. I learned many lessons driving the bus and serving the public and will carry them with me into my next software engineering job and into the rest of my life.
