Summary
Akiyo Marukawa is a software engineer with nine years of experience building modern, accessible full-stack web applications and interactive data visualizations from the Bay Area. She has led cross-team initiatives to standardize component sharing and designed a micro-frontend architecture using custom HTML components and Shadow DOM to bridge diverse tech stacks. At Moody’s Analytics and climate-risk product teams she drove accessibility compliance, component libraries, and pragmatic state/data-filtering architectures that balanced performance and maintainability. Her background in controls engineering and aeronautical studies gives her a systems-oriented approach to refactoring and reducing technical debt, and she’s comfortable navigating both frontend ecosystems (React, TypeScript, Webpack/Vite) and backend interactions (Java, Python, SQL). Known for a passionate love/hate relationship with JavaScript, she pairs hands-on implementation with clear documentation and cross-discipline collaboration.
