More than code

Brady Stroud

Problem solver at heart - software engineering is my my tool of choice.

I’m a software engineer because I love solving problems and building things that work better. Code is just the medium - what really excites me is improving how things function, whether that’s a process, a product, or a team.

I’m a Senior Software Engineer with strong expertise in .NET, Blazor, MAUI (was Xamarin), and React. Beyond hands-on development, I manage projects end-to-end - driving process improvements, setting engineering standards, and helping teams deliver with clarity and consistency. I’m a big believer in open-source tech for its flexibility, transparency, and the speed it brings to innovation.

Beyond the keyboard, you’ll usually find me far from my laptop - running, mountain biking, climbing, or wakeboarding. Recently, I've been loving working on some renovation/new house construction projects with friends.
