Summary
Andrew Chen is a software engineer based in New York with three years of experience across Apple, Amazon, Figma, and Databricks, currently building AI Experiences and Search Quality at Figma. He spans mobile (iOS/Android), full‑stack React frontends and backend services, and tools & infrastructure work — comfortable shipping features and automations that reduce latency and operational load. His internships produced measurable impact: a dashboard at Apple that helped clean up hundreds of stale tickets by cutting data latency ~60x, a Databricks feature used by 600k+ users to pin workspaces, and a React modernization at Amazon that migrated a legacy codebase to React 18 and simplified the UI by ~10%. He also built an AR prototype for Onshape’s Android app and engineered search caching and E2E testing frameworks at Figma to speed backfills 10x and deflake 100+ tests. A Cornell CS graduate, he seeks roles that combine cross‑disciplinary systems thinking with hands‑on implementation across product and infrastructure.
