Software Engineering Coaches, Events, and Resources

I have over 25 years of experience coaching technical leaders in both the software and gaming industries. I have worked globally so understand the cultural factors that can be at play as well. I have worked with both individual contributors as well as people leaders at all levels. My focus is also in helping diverse leaders thrive in their roles and in their lives.

I’ve spent the last 8+ years building software at some of the world’s leading tech companies—including Google, Amazon, Adobe, and STMicroelectronics—where I worked on distributed systems, large-scale infrastructure, and cutting-edge applications. Across these roles, problem-solving using data structures and algorithms has been the foundation of my success, helping me tackle real-world engineering challenges at scale. Alongside my industry career, I’ve been mentoring aspiring engineers for over 4 years through CodeHarmony.dev, the training platform I founded to help people sharpen their problem-solving mindset. I’ve guided hundreds of students and professionals to level up their coding skills, strengthen their fundamentals, and prepare for interviews at top product-based companies. My coaching is hands-on, practical, and designed to help you not just crack interviews but also grow into a stronger software engineer.

Hi, I'm Cannon! I’m a software engineer who loves helping people level up their engineering skills. Over the last five years I’ve worked on everything from backend systems and cloud infrastructure to DevOps pipelines and blockchain projects. Right now I’m at Leland building the very platform you're using with Java, React, GraphQL, and AWS. Before that I interned at Amazon on the Alexa team where I integrated AI and large language models into certification workflows. I’ve also helped launch an NFT marketplace, optimized deployments with Docker and Kubernetes, and even co-founded a startup through BYU’s Sandbox Program. I know what it’s like to ship code, scale systems, and juggle the messy parts of real-world engineering. Whether you’re growing your backend fundamentals, getting hands-on with cloud, or curious about blockchain, I’d love to help you level up.
