MAX STANDERFER.

I build software platforms that handle the hard stuff: complex integrations, competing priorities, and technical decisions that have long-term consequences. At Five & Done, I own a Fortune 15 client portfolio for Toyota and Lexus built on an API stack processing 22+ million calls per day across 85+ consumers.

My work spans both sides of the product spectrum. Enterprise ERP platforms running across national headquarters, regional offices, and agency networks. And consumer-facing products like Fender's content platform, which I rebuilt into a conversion engine driving 225% more trial subscriptions and 45% more total sessions.

I hold an A-CSPO certification, spend as much time in Postman and Swagger as I do in Jira, and do my best work at the intersection of technical depth and business strategy.

My process starts with the problem, not the feature request. I hold the first solution loosely and stress-test alternatives before committing, especially when scale is on the table. Once the direction is clear, the work shifts to stakeholders: building the case, prioritizing the right things, and getting everyone moving together.
