San Francisco, California, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAshley Luk is a software engineer focused on growth at Gusto with eight years of experience building user-centered web and mobile applications across React, React Native, Node.js, and MySQL. Transitioning from filmmaking and animation into software through community college, bootcamps, hackathons, and mentorship roles, she blends a storyteller’s sensibility with rigorous engineering to create intuitive, inclusive experiences. Her background in cinema and Japanese studies informs a thoughtful approach to UX and cross-cultural product design, while hands-on projects—like a Minerva Hackathon facial-recognition to microbot prototype—showcase her appetite for hardware-adjacent experimentation. At Formation and MeetFletcher she shipped production-facing UI improvements and mentored junior engineers, and she continues honing full-stack skills through a travel health app built with React/Redux and Express. Colleagues describe her as compassionately driven: she leverages persistence and empathy as strengths when researching, debugging, and delivering solutions that users actually enjoy.
