Ewa Manek is a Senior Developer based in Portland, Oregon with three years of industry experience building reliable, scalable Java and Android systems and a solid background in Ruby on Rails and JavaScript. Transitioning from an academic track in East Asian studies to software engineering, she brings rigorous research, problem-solving, and documentation skills to product-focused engineering. At U.S. Bank she developed and tested mission-critical Java check-processing services and supported production systems, and she now contributes to engineering work at Shopify. Her early contracting and bootcamp experience sharpened her full‑stack instincts, test-driven development (RSpec/Capybara), and practical collaboration with cross-functional teams. Known for translating complex requirements into well-tested, maintainable code, she aims to apply technical work toward measurable social impact. Her atypical blend of humanities training and hands-on engineering helps her communicate across technical and nontechnical stakeholders effectively.
