Scott Morse

Scott Morse

Hi, I'm Scott, a creator of open source software, jazz musician, yoga teacher, and founder.

Music is my most formal background, having studied jazz and classical music. I worked for years as a freelance guitarist with the ability to improvise in various styles and sight-read sheet music, sheet music being a literal form of code.

Later in life, I became a software engineer, after finding that I got a similar gut feeling when writing code as I did when writing or analyzing music. I did a lot of my initial learning by translating the data structures found in music into code.

I started my career in the software startups of Austin, TX, mainly in education technology, and I eventually ended up working as a lead engineer in the enterprise for the music industry for years.

Over time, I accumulated experience owning many different kinds of projects, building modern frontends for the web, writing backend APIs, creating scalable DevOps systems for multiple teams, handling cloud architecture, and more.

I have taken that experience and channeled it into my own independent software company, Smorsic Labs. My flagship project is bun-workspaces, an open source tool for monorepo development. I have spoken at various software engineering events in the Denver area about my work.

Todd is passionate about creating positive experiences for people, including through writing music, building products, and community building . Todd is always open for a jam session or the occasional paired programming with strangers, just ask.
