Background

About Reagan Goodson

I’m a software engineering leader with over 20 years of experience delivering scalable, enterprise-grade solutions across the insurance, healthcare, and technology sectors. Currently, I lead multiple Agile teams at James River Insurance, where I’m responsible for optimizing mission-critical Claims and Policy platforms supporting a $1B portfolio. I bring deep technical expertise in.NET, Java, Angular, and SQL Server, along with a strong foundation in cloud architecture (AWS and Azure) and modern development practices. I’ve led large-scale modernization initiatives, streamlined CI/CD pipelines, and improved release stability—resulting in a 95% reduction in rollbacks and a 30% increase in delivery efficiency. Beyond technical execution, I focus on building and mentoring high-performing teams. I’ve helped engineers grow into senior roles and have turned underperforming squads into cohesive, high-impact units. I thrive at the intersection of technology and business, where leadership drives measurable outcomes.
