San Francisco, California, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDerek Wu is a full-stack software engineer based in San Francisco with 11 years of experience building data-informed web products and backend services. He currently develops at Airtable after contributing to ad campaign management, ETL, and forecasting data pipelines at The Trade Desk and earlier engineering roles at Academia.edu. Comfortable across front-end and data plumbing, Derek has shipped dashboards, bulk-edit tools, partner ETL services, and data sketch pipelines that bridge product and partner needs. He’s pragmatic about constraints—evident from early lab work building low-budget test apparatus—and brings a habit of clicking into unfamiliar repos to learn quickly. Outside work he’s into milk tea and competitive Super Smash Bros. Melee, a combination that hints at both social curiosity and quick reflexes.
