Eddie Welker

Senior Software Architect & Engineer | Cellist | Cyclist

I am a team leader and architect who helps organizations build big, important things. My work focuses on Python, Django, and scalable data infrastructure. When I'm not at a keyboard, I’m almost certainly on a bicycle.


Technical Focus

  • Architecture: Leading teams through organizational change and technical complexity.
  • Languages & Frameworks: Python, JavaScript, SQL, Scala, HTML/CSS.
  • Philosophy: Building, whether it's code, wood, or music. Incremental improvement and validation.
  • Empathy: Build for people.

Highlights - work, projects, things I'm proud of

Beyond the Code

  • Cellist: Former principal cellist of the Columbia Orchestra. I have a deep love for 20th-century Russian composers like Prokofiev and Shostakovich.
  • Cyclist: I spend summers on long-distance tours. Proud owner of an All-City Space Horse.
  • Maker: Amateur woodworker and photographer (shooting with a Nikon D780).
