Virginia, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJared Nguyen is a Senior Software Engineer with six years of full-stack experience, currently building product at Tight after progressing from software engineer to senior within the company. A UVA computer science graduate, he brings hands-on backend and frontend expertise from roles at Amazon, WillowTree, and university projects that delivered production web apps and REST APIs with OAuth2.0. Jared has taught and mentored extensively—running a 12-week web dev course and serving as a CS teaching assistant—which sharpens his ability to translate complex concepts for teammates and users. He has practical experience in test automation (Cypress, Jest), containerized research environments (Docker, Singularity), and restoring troubled systems through architecture and API optimization. Comfortable across the stack, he balances shipping reliable features with improving developer workflows and system robustness. Based in Virginia, he combines startup velocity with collegiate research rigor, often surfacing less obvious fixes that restore functionality rather than just adding features.
