Senior🎓
Top SchoolGordon Lanza is a Senior Software Engineer based in Emeryville with seven years of cross-functional experience building full-stack web applications and shipping product features at startups and scale-ups. He blends hands-on React/Node/Python development and AWS deployments with product, sales, and operations instincts—having held roles from VP of Business Development to Operations Manager. Currently at Sirona Medical and maintaining independent projects (React/GraphQL, Discord bots, Twitch integrations, iOS contributions), he investigates how to make interfaces more personable and interactive rather than mere desktop simulations. His background in biomedical/electrical engineering and early work building test GUIs for network chips gives him a rare mix of hardware-aware rigor and modern web engineering. Colleagues know him for curiosity-driven side projects and a knack for turning cross-disciplinary insights into delightful user experiences.
