Top SchoolJen Kennedy is a web application developer with nine years of experience building accessible, test-driven frontends using TypeScript, React, GraphQL, and Jest, currently contributing at GivingData in Cincinnati. With a background in molecular biology and a Computer Software Engineering certificate from Flatiron School, she brings a researcher's attention to detail to product work—especially around document generation and modernizing legacy flows. At Trust & Will she led a repo-wide ESLint-driven refactor that reduced lint errors by 98%, implemented Stripe integrations, and became the domain expert for legal document generation. She combines hands-on coding with proactive cross-team coordination and clear communication for technical and non-technical stakeholders, preferring products with measurable positive impact. A longtime maker and problem solver, Jen’s early career experience in research, QA, and community-facing roles contributes to her pragmatic, user-focused approach.
