Elaine Au-yang is a software engineer with 8 years of experience who blends a dual Computer Science and Commerce background to deliver measurable product and performance improvements. She has driven cross-team initiatives at NerdWallet that improved site latency, analytics coverage, recovery times, and user registration conversion, and now builds systems at Meta. Comfortable across front-end and back-end stacks, Elaine has led migrations (Next.js), observability work (ELK, Datadog), and automation that saved engineering time and reduced errors. She combines hands-on coding with stakeholder coordination—owning projects end-to-end from design to production—and has a track record of turning developer pain points into scalable workflows. Outside work she’s an avid hiker and competitive Strava runner, a detail that mirrors her habit of optimizing both systems and personal performance.
