Summary

👤
Senior
🎓
Top School
Alyssa Quek is a Data Engineering Lead with 12 years of experience building large-scale, production data pipelines and full-stack systems, currently collecting and analyzing massive CDN, DNS and GSLB logs at Apple. She blends hands-on engineering in Golang, Python and Javascript with cloud-native tooling—Kafka, Kubernetes and ClickHouse—to deliver performance and financial analytics, anomaly detection, and interactive visualizations. Her background spans computer vision and applied ML (including a production image-processing pipeline that improved defect detection by 30%) through to building customer-facing web apps and APIs for startups. An engineer who optimizes for both code clarity and speed, she has a knack for refactoring core algorithms—evident in her numpy-driven optimizations for a face-morphing project—and for turning messy streaming data into actionable dashboards. Based in the Austin metro area, she pairs research-minded problem solving with experience operating at Apple scale.
