Senior🎓
Top SchoolJared Markowitz is a Senior Software Engineer based in Tokyo with six years of experience building full‑stack web applications using Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, React/Redux, Node/Express, and MongoDB. He has shipped product and contract work at companies including Typeform, Scratch, Recurve, and now Capital One, blending user-focused front-end work with robust backend services. His background in education—holding a master's in Education Studies and years directing tech summer camps—gives him a knack for mentoring, clear documentation, and communicating technical ideas to nontechnical audiences. Jared’s early joy seeing students demo games still drives his enthusiasm for sharing and iterating on code with peers. Outside work he’s active in improv, an avid gamer and fantasy reader, and is learning to ice skate—traits that reflect his collaborative, curious, and playful approach to engineering.
