Alan Dai is a San Francisco–based software engineer with 11 years of hands-on experience building full-stack web applications using JavaScript/TypeScript, Python, and Ruby across frameworks like React, Node/Express, and Rails. He has shipped end-to-end features and UX improvements in production environments, tackled API integrations and developer tooling, and is comfortable with databases (Postgres, Mongo), GraphQL tooling, and containerized deployments. A growth-oriented collaborator, he thrives in fast-paced teams and has a practical knack for bridging developer and user needs—evident from improving clinic and support workflows in past internships. Outside code he applies the same problem-solving curiosity to bouldering and baking, which he credits for sharpening focus and creativity.
