Cheney Wu is a solution-driven full-stack Software Design Engineer with 9 years of experience building scalable, user-centric web applications and backend services. He combines a strong command of JavaScript/TypeScript and React with C#/.NET and SQL Server to deliver performant systems—evidenced by optimizations that supported an NYC portal for ~400K users and reduced navigation time by 30%. Cheney bridges product and platform work, from reusable React component libraries and Redux state management to RESTful APIs, Kafka-enabled real-time streaming, and robust PostgreSQL data models. He practices test-driven development and achieved ~80% test coverage on mission-critical systems, reducing production defects and improving developer velocity. An active open-source practitioner, he prototypes AI-powered features (OpenAI integration, live translation) that boosted engagement and accessibility across projects. Trained at Johns Hopkins and Codesmith, Cheney brings a rare mix of security-minded curiosity, cryptography/data science interests, and a creative background as a former principal dancer that informs his collaborative, performance-focused approach.
