Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDiego Wong is a senior full-stack engineer based in Medellín with over a decade of experience building enterprise-grade web applications across startups and global firms. He blends backend systems expertise in Go and Java with modern TypeScript front-end work (React/Next.js), having influenced developer tooling at VMware and contributed to Backstage. Diego has led small teams and shipped production services for brands like Yum! Brands, Huge and GrubHub, and recently helped build a climate-focused knowledge base using Next.js and Sanity. Comfortable with both legacy Java stacks (Spring, Openbravo) and cloud-native Kubernetes customization, he brings pragmatic architectural judgment and a habit of moving between deep systems work and developer-facing UX. Notably, his career shows a pattern of shaping developer experience—whether via Backstage contributions or internal tooling—so he often solves problems by improving how teams build and operate software.
