Top SchoolAndrew Haskell is a Senior Software Engineer with 12 years of experience, currently focused on frontend development at Salesforce and based in Watertown, MA. He brings a strong full-stack background from roles at MIT, Diffeo, and earlier startups, blending practical frontend work with systems-level contributions such as parallelizing database compression for genomics tools. An active open-source contributor, he implemented a Vue.js example and IndexedDB persistence for the well-known Dexie.js project, improving UX and package management. Equally comfortable in Go and modern JS frameworks, he pairs curiosity-driven learning with pragmatic engineering to ship reliable user-facing features. A former computational biology developer with a CS/Biology degree from Tufts, he often approaches UI problems with an appreciation for performance and data integrity—ask him about sloths and you might get a 45-minute conversation.
