Top SchoolIsaac Kogan is a full-stack engineer with five years of hands-on experience building scalable data pipelines, enterprise web apps, and generative AI solutions. He combines practical reverse-engineering skills—demonstrated by large-scale TikTok data collection and a Python TikTokLive library contribution—with production-grade backend work in FastAPI, Qdrant-powered semantic search, and React/TypeScript frontends. Isaac has delivered AI chatbots and embedding-driven search at York University and created robust integrations for marketing analytics at Euler Stream and Loyalift. Comfortable operating across research and product contexts, he’s shipped monitoring stacks (Grafana/Prometheus), automated token-reverse engineering for web scraping, and well-documented open-source tooling. Based in Toronto, he pairs a biology background with a hacker mindset—“making messes & breaking codebases”—to solve messy data problems and turn reverse-engineered insights into reliable systems.
