Chloé Calvarin is a software engineer with 11 years of experience, currently based in the Greater Montreal area and working at Google. She has deep back-end expertise from her time on the Bazel team, where she improved core options processing, refactored recursive configuration handling, and added startup options to boost build performance in a widely used open-source build system. Her work shows a focus on long-lived, scalable tooling and careful deprecation/fix work that improves developer workflows at scale. A Harvey Mudd graduate, she blends rigorous technical foundations with hands-on engineering across large codebases. Earlier roles in tutoring, research, and leadership at Harvey Mudd plus an internship at Knewton reflect strong collaboration and mentorship skills beyond pure coding. She brings a pragmatic, detail-oriented approach to solving tricky edge cases in infrastructure software.
