Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJennifer Manning is a senior software engineer with 11 years of experience building resilient systems across C++, Python, Java, and Scala, currently contributing at Aurora from her base in Pittsburgh. Her background at IBM Watson includes designing query parsers in ANTLR, dynamic rate-limiting for multi-tenant clusters, and collaborating with researchers on query performance prediction—work that blends applied research with production engineering. She has led product migrations and extraction of core functionality from legacy systems, and previously managed large-scale conference logistics and RFID hardware prototyping for a 1,500-person event. A Michigan State alumna fluent in Japanese, Jennifer pairs strong systems-level thinking with a community-first mindset, organizing local tech outreach and conferences alongside full-time engineering. Colleagues know her as a pragmatic problem-solver who still considers herself a C++ engineer at heart and is comfortable moving between low-level performance work and higher-level language ecosystems.
