Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJake Zhang is a Full Stack Developer based in Sydney with 11 years of engineering experience and over 8 years delivering commercial systems across online gaming, sports betting, IoT data collection, virtualization and analytics. He blends low-level systems expertise in Rust/C++ and game engines (BigWorld, UE4, in-house engines) with modern web stacks (TypeScript, NestJS, NextJS/React) and cloud-native tooling (Kubernetes, Dapr, Kafka/Redpanda, AWS). At FDJ he drives production-grade TypeScript and Kubernetes work while prior roles at Wargaming, Aristocrat and Playtech reflect deep game-server and real-time systems credentials. He is comfortable across the full lifecycle—from performance-sensitive C++ backends to responsive React UIs and observability stacks (ELK, Grafana, OpenTelemetry). Known on GitHub as someone who “releases the coding beast,” he brings a pragmatic, systems-first mindset that favors reliability and scalability.
