Top SchoolIsabella Smallcombe is a backend software engineer and founder with nine years of experience building product-forward infrastructure and AI-native tools across startups in the Bay Area and NYC. After internships at Snap and Atlassian where she worked across C++, Objective‑C, Kotlin, Java, and Python on calling, migration, and monitoring features, she spent four years at ZORA shipping production services before founding Gumnuts to build AI-first products like Study Marker (used by 3,000+ students) and Templa.
