Summary
Aaron Zheng is a Software Engineer II based in the NYC metro area with seven years of experience building user-focused web applications using Ruby on Rails, React.js, Next.js and modern JavaScript. At Datadog he continues to sharpen scalable product skills after leading front-end initiatives at GeistM, where he rebuilt e-commerce UX, created a custom table library and migrated a site for cost savings. His work at Noken demonstrates a data-driven mindset—A/B testing and targeted landing pages he implemented drove conversion lifts and significant cost-per-signup reductions. Comfortable across the stack, he pairs product-minded front-end engineering with pragmatic back-end and dashboard work to surface key metrics for stakeholders. Outside of software he tinkers with computer hardware and puzzles, a hobby that reflects his curiosity for systems and attention to detail.
