Summary
Daniel Kang is a senior software engineer with 10+ years building high-performance, user-focused products across mobile, desktop, and embedded platforms. He brings end-to-end expertise from low-level drivers and firmware at Samsung to Mac/iOS Office performance work at Microsoft and full-stack mobile/video systems at Meta, now applying that breadth to product-driven engineering at Read AI. Known for shipping polished, data-informed features (especially on video/Reels and real-time communication) he combines deep technical craftsmanship with product intuition around usability, animation, and reliability. Daniel also has proven leadership in growing teams and mentoring engineers, having supported a group of nine at Meta while maintaining strong cross-functional communication to unblock complex efforts. Based in the Greater Seattle area with an MS in Computer Science, he pairs systems-level technical depth with a talent for building balanced, integrity-driven team culture. An uncommon thread through his career is comfort across silicon-to-UI layers, enabling pragmatic solutions where hardware constraints meet delightful user experiences.
