Hello! I'm Scott Canoni

Built the web platform for a financial application handling tokenized assets: the React front end, the wallet and Plaid integrations, the shared types package, and the Terraform behind all of it, remote the whole time. The role was eliminated in September 2026.

• Integrated web3 wallets (MetaMask, Phantom, Backpack, Solflare, Trust Wallet) across Ethereum, Base, and Solana, so issuing and transferring tokenized assets worked with whatever wallet a user already had.
• Wired up Plaid for bank linking, identity, and account verification across onboarding and funding.
• Moved a hand-built production environment into code: AWS CDK first, then Terraform so the same tooling would carry over if we ever left AWS. After that, spinning up a dev, staging, or per-feature environment was a routine task instead of a project.
• Built streamex-types, a private npm package so infrastructure, backend, and frontend all shared one set of types and the concepts stayed tightly coupled across the whole stack. A renamed field failed the build instead of reaching production.

My own LLC since 2003. I design, build, ship, and support everything here myself, including a subscription SaaS with paying customers.

• Built and run Music Bingo, a subscription SaaS for DJs and venue hosts: Spotify and YouTube playlist import, on-demand PDF card generation, and live online games guests play from their phones while the board is cast to a screen.
• Operate BuzzBuzzBingo, an automated bingo card generator that has produced passive income for over 15 years. Doing the same thing over and over again is boring (and needs automation), so every order generates its own cards without me.
• This site too: React 19 and TypeScript on Vite, installable as a PWA. The name animation on tacosntonic.com is my own npm package, react-anagram-animation.

One company, four names: iWon.com, MindSpark, Ask Applications, Ask Media Group. Fourteen years as an engineer, then seven running the teams. I stayed because the job kept changing: portals, then downloadable apps, then games, then managing the people building them, remote for the last stretch.

• Started at iWon.com building portal pages, then launched and scaled Excite.com and MyWay.com, three portals competing head-on with Yahoo.
• Architected, built, and shipped consumer products with more than a hundred million users between them: SmileyCentral, Zwinky, CursorMania, Webfetti, MyFunCards, PopularScreensavers, Motitags, MyScrapNook. A/B tests and usage data decided which features stayed and which ones I killed.
• Built the backends, frontends, frameworks, APIs, and internal tools that Engineering, Product, Design, and Marketing ran on, and proposed the technical solutions behind business goals that drove seven-figure revenue growth.
• Managed 19 front-end developers and managers across the Web Development, Portals and Applications, and Games and Prizes teams: scrum, estimation, roadmap planning, forecasting, and hiring. When I gave the business a date, we hit it.

Computer science and mathematics, a database for the Dean of Students, an internship at IBM, and a first job at ScreamingMedia straight out of school.

• Interned at IBM in the Global Systems Division, Somers NY, building intranet sites for the Project Management Methods and Worldwide Solution Design and Delivery Methods divisions in Java, SQL, JavaScript, and Oracle.
• Then ScreamingMedia, where I wrote JavaScript that wrote JavaScript: consuming content from providers, aggregating it, and publishing it back out to publishers.
