Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolAsad Richardson is a software engineer with 8+ years building web experiences and developer tools for publishing and education-focused products, currently shaping video, pre-roll revenue, and AI-driven workflows at Dotdash Meredith. He brings full‑stack fluency—from refactoring Vue apps into microservices to Python Lambda backends and performance‑optimized frontend components—and a developer-first mindset that prioritizes reusable, accessible code. His background spans cloud migrations, WCAG compliance, and building custom CMS and WordPress solutions, reflecting both engineering rigor and product sensibility. Trained in AR/VR and MFA-level computer science, he’s pursuing biomimicry-inspired augmented and virtual reality work that informs his approach to UX and interaction. Colleagues rely on him to balance pragmatic delivery with iterative innovation, and he quietly pairs creative design skills (from Illustrator/Sketch work) with scalable engineering. Based in Stamford, CT, he’s equally at home writing SASS mixins to trim bundle sizes or prototyping immersive experiences for the next era of web interaction.
