Chloe Lin is a backend software engineer with eight years of experience building reliable, payment and core services for fast-moving startups in the San Francisco Bay Area. She has delivered high-impact work across stacks including Node, Python, Go, Postgres, Redis, Elasticsearch and AWS, with notable ownership of payment revamps that reduced error rates and saved her company hundreds of thousands per year. At Lob she worked on auth, edge and webhook/event core services, and at Rocksbox she led database design, automated rollback tooling and performance optimizations that improved retention and latency. Chloe also architects systems end-to-end in personal projects—implementing a Git-like version control and route-finding apps that demonstrate algorithmic depth (LCA, KD-tree, Dijkstra/A*). She blends strong engineering craftsmanship with production-facing monitoring and testing practices, and brings a humanities-informed perspective from a Yale MA in English Literature to communicate complex tradeoffs clearly.
