Jing Khoo is a Philosophy PhD student at Harvard with eight years of experience blending front-end engineering and rigorous writing and research skills. She has shipped production React/Django features—like a gene “cart,” set-operations tools, and fuzzy-search using Levenshtein distance—while building reusable UI components and managing state with Redux. Her background spans academia and product work, from teaching and research roles to hands-on development at a bioinformatics startup, giving her a rare fluency in translating complex domain requirements into user-facing interfaces. Based in New York, she pairs analytical depth from philosophy with practical software craftsmanship, and her interdisciplinary training (CS + creative writing) helps her communicate technical ideas clearly across teams.
