Anastasia (Taya) Correa

I’m a self-starter who thrives in new environments and challenges—whether that meant moving across the world alone at 17, earning both a Bachelor’s and Master’s in Science, or pivoting into tech to build systems that handle millions in transactions every month. Currently, I’m a backend software engineer on the billing team, where I manage and optimize systems responsible for processing $10M+ in payments monthly. My work spans everything from integrating third-party payment platforms (like Stripe, Forte, and Payjunction) to implementing Okta authentication, automated billing workflows, and real-time monitoring with Datadog, Grafana, and Sentry. I collaborate cross-functionally with finance and accounting to ensure data accuracy, scalability, and compliance—building resilient systems from the ground up. Outside of tech, I’m a curious generalist with passions spanning science, wine, music, and books. If you’re ever looking for a great read or a new bottle to try, I’d love to share a recommendation.
