Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCatherine Khuu is a Senior Software Engineer based in New York with a decade of experience building reliable web and operations tooling across fintech and consumer platforms. She’s driven by a social mission—transitioning from community advocacy and elder-victim advocacy into engineering—and seeks roles that combine technical excellence with measurable social impact. At Stash and Plated she delivered platform migrations, real-time observability, fraud detection, and integrations with enterprise ERPs while improving developer productivity through CI/CD and internal component libraries. Catherine pairs full‑stack delivery skills with strong cross-functional collaboration, having led hackathons, retreats, and community tech events to grow team culture and mentoring. Her background in philosophy and civic work gives her a user-centered, ethical perspective on design and policy trade-offs that isn’t obvious from a typical engineering CV. She thrives in collegial teams where mentorship, impact, and engineering craftsmanship intersect.
