Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJeff Lee is a versatile software engineer and founder with 14 years of experience building scalable backend systems, developer platforms, and games from prototype to production. Currently at Figma and co-running indie studio Main Gauche Games (creator of the festival-shortlisted Stereo Boy), he blends product-focused backend work—APIs, databases, caches, queues, and cloud ops—with C#/Unity game development and WebGL. At Slack he led high-impact platform improvements that slashed webhook tail latency and hardened enterprise developer workflows, and earlier roles show a track record of shipping platform migrations, cost reductions, and client-facing prototypes for finance and consumer products. Jeff emphasizes maintainability, UX, performance, and security while multiplying team effectiveness through automation, mentoring, and clear process. Based in Berkeley, he pairs a humanities background with deep technical breadth across TypeScript, Go, C#, Ruby, and C/C++, a mix that surfaces in both tooling and playable experiences.
