Top SchoolCarroll Yu is a Senior Software Engineer based in San Francisco with 11 years of experience building high-scale web applications across e-commerce, ticketing, and logistics. He’s shipped major platform work at Walmart Global Tech—rewriting walmart.com as a monorepo SPA, owning ADA-compliant shared components used by 30+ teams, and leading search and vertical re-architectures to improve speed and conversion. At Uber now, he continues to apply a pragmatic full‑stack mindset with strong TypeScript, React, Next.js, GraphQL, and performance optimization chops. Earlier roles show hands-on growth work (Le Tote) and backend reliability improvements (TicketSocket), and he even founded and ran a private MMORPG community that grew to 3,000+ users—an indicator of long-standing product, ops, and entrepreneurial instincts. Outside work he explores food, music, photography, and local discovery, bringing a curious, user-focused perspective to engineering decisions.
