Hi, 👋 I'm Corbin Murray. I am a software engineer who loves turning big ideas into practical, working solutions.
Welcome to my small slice of the internet, where I share the projects I've built, the things I've learned, and the occasional wild experiment. Like any good garden, it's a work in progress — growing, evolving, and sometimes sprouting unexpected ideas. Take a look around, and maybe you'll find something inspiring — or at least worth chatting about!
As a software engineer I am passionate about creating innovative solutions and tackling complex challenges. My professional interests include backend development, event-driven architecture, and building systems that are both scalable and efficient.
I thrive in collaborative environments where creativity meets purpose, and I love working with modern tech stacks to bring ideas to life.
When I'm not coding, you'll often find me spending time with my wife and our two dogs, Pretzel and Ink. If we are not taking walks, playing pickleball, or watching a good movie, then you'll find me playing soccer, at the gym, or working on DIY projects.
Whether it's getting lost in nature or diving into a good video game, I try to find balance between my professional and personal passions.
"This site is a reflection of all those facets — my love for software development, my curiosity for learning, and the things that make life fun along the way."
At KBX Logistics, I led the development of a comprehensive integration framework tailored for complex business needs, incorporating workflow engines and ensuring the platform's scalability and alignment with business requirements. I held various roles that involved full lifecycle software development, from initial research and design to deployment and continuous improvement.
Reduced integration deployment time by 40% and improved system reliability by implementing automated testing and deployment pipelines
As a Senior Software Engineer, I mentored junior developers, championed coding standards, and drove improvements to build microservices and integration solutions that supported the organization's evolving demands. I also held a leadership role, focusing on aligning cross-functional team efforts with business objectives, maintaining coding standards, and enhancing team productivity and code quality.
I played a pivotal role in designing, developing, and maintaining a robust integrations framework that streamlined business-to-business interactions. This framework served as a workflow engine, enabling seamless integration with internal and external services through various system-to-system communication styles (ex: RESTful API's, SFTP, SOAP, etc.). I focused on enhancing the platform's scalability, reliability, and developer experience, ensuring every iteration improved usability and alignment with the company's vision.
Processed over 500,000+ daily transactions with high availability through the new integration framework
During my time as a developer at a pharmaceutical management system company, I focused on both client and server aspects of our Windows desktop application. This role involved handling complex requirements related to managing patient prescriptions, inventory, and overall pharmacy workflows. I leveraged SQL Server and .NET extensively to ensure the application met the industry's rigorous standards for data accuracy, reliability, and compliance, providing users with a seamless, efficient interface.
Increased application reliability by 35% and reduced bug reports by 40% through modern design patterns and 300+ unit tests
In addition to my work on the main application, I took the initiative to develop a QA website to streamline the process of candidate screening for technical roles. Built with React and Redux, this platform enabled faster assessments of coding skills and technical expertise. Using JavaScript and TypeScript, I was able to deliver a responsive, user-friendly web solution that enhanced our recruitment pipeline and helped bring in top talent more efficiently.

During my data science internship, I conducted a comprehensive data governance examination for the City of Wichita. This effort involved assessing existing data practices across various departments and providing actionable guidance to improve data management and usage. I collaborated with department leaders to establish consistent standards, ensuring data reliability and accessibility while aligning practices with organizational goals. This process not only enhanced transparency but also set a foundation for improved decision-making.
Standardized data practices across 18 city departments, improving cross-department data sharing by 60%
In addition to governance, I developed several data-visual dashboards for the city council, showcasing key performance indicators (KPIs) and metrics critical to municipal operations. These dashboards provided intuitive, real-time insights into city-wide progress, enabling more informed policy discussions. I also created a web integration for the city's website, allowing residents to report non-emergency maintenance requests seamlessly. This tool improved public engagement and streamlined service response workflows, showcasing the impact of data-driven solutions on community services.
