Top SchoolJay Paroline is a seasoned engineering leader and founder with 15 years of experience building scalable backend systems and leading cross-functional teams from startup to enterprise. As Co-Founder & CTO of WriteNow.Care and former Engineering Manager at Dropbox, he excels at rapid, iterative release cycles while embedding rigorous quality, security, and deployment practices. His track record spans architecting high-performance databases and caching strategies, turning legacy codebases into maintainable platforms, and shipping consumer-facing features at cadence (Grooveshark, BetterHelp). Based in Taiwan, he pairs deep hands-on backend expertise (MySQL, memcache, nginx) with product instincts that prioritize what users love and what works under heavy load. An engineer who often restores simplicity to complex systems, he is as comfortable writing core backend code as he is building and mentoring durable teams.
