Senior🎓
Top SchoolJason Kim is a Senior Software Engineer with 12 years of experience building scalable web and data systems across startups and large enterprises, now leading vehicle intelligence services at Axon. He brings deep full-stack expertise in JavaScript/TypeScript, Java, Ruby, Node.js, Rails, Spring, React and Svelte, plus data engineering experience with Spark, Airflow and Redshift. At Coupang he helped scale an ad platform from zero to hundreds of millions in revenue and built terabyte-scale pipelines; at Microsoft he shaped Teams Apps and Bots features and acted as a key stakeholder for consumer and government clouds. Comfortable as a hands-on tech lead and interviewer, he has repeatedly grown teams and onboarded engineers while balancing product and operational needs. Based in Seattle and trained in electrical engineering, he combines systems-level thinking with practical shipping velocity across backend, data and frontend domains. An unexpected throughline: he pairs low-level systems QA experience from early roles with modern cloud data engineering, giving him a rare end-to-end perspective.
