Summary
Henry Thach is an Engineering Manager with a decade of hands-on experience building and modernizing full‑stack web applications, primarily in EdTech. He leads distributed teams, mentors engineers, and drives Rails-to-React modernization while keeping dependencies and security patches current. Henry has a track record of improving performance through SQL tuning, orchestrating cloud deployments on AWS, and automating developer workflows across CI/CD pipelines. His background spans building LMS platforms, data analytics tooling for data scientists, and mobile migrations to React Native—skills that blend product sensibility with deep technical ownership. Still motivated by the curiosity that drove him to build a Pokémon fan site in the ’90s, he balances technical leadership with practical troubleshooting and hands-on coding. Outside work he hones focus and discipline through jump rope, reading, and weightlifting—habits that inform his pragmatic, steady approach to engineering management.
