Dan Kim is a Senior Software Engineer based in New York with nine years of hands-on experience building full-stack products and shipping at companies from startups to Palantir and now dYdX. Trained in Mechatronics and Computer Science at the University of Toronto, he blends hardware-minded systems thinking with polished front-end design—having built React/Redux apps, mobile React Native experiences, and integrations with APIs like Twilio and Google Calendar. At Palantir he moved from intern to software engineer, and his background includes product-focused roles that span user research, UX iteration, and backend API work in PHP/Laravel and Node.js. Colleagues would note his designer-developer duality and practical approach to end-to-end features, plus a portfolio that showcases both creative prototypes and production-grade systems.
