Senior🎓
Top SchoolFaaez Nizamudeen is a software engineer with 9 years of experience building full-stack web applications and highly available distributed systems, currently based in Mountain View and holding a Master’s in Computer Science from UIUC. He has shipped production-grade features at scale — redesigning Navan Expense to support 1.5M+ monthly transactions and leading a Graybar rewrite that cut costs and slashed API response times by 80%. Comfortable across React/TypeScript, Node.js, Angular, and cloud platforms, he also brings MLOps and model-versioning experience from Azure-based projects that reduced retraining and hosting costs. Faaez thrives at the intersection of AI and UX, favoring fast-paced teams and laser-focused product goals where he can move quickly from prototype to robust, tested systems. He pairs front-end craftsmanship (accessible, modular UI components and strong test coverage) with practical backend optimizations that drive measurable business impact. Outside core engineering, he has taught data science at UIUC and consistently looks for efficiency gains that cut cycle time and costs.
