Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJohn Lau is a software engineer based in New York with five years of hands-on experience building applications and distributed systems, currently working at Datadog. He has a strong full-stack background from roles at Aeyesafe and GOGOX, designing RESTful APIs, frontend architectures with React/Redux, and automating tests with Java Spring and Appium. John has practical experience with microservices and data pipelines, including preparing thermal image data for YOLO-based labeling and deploying Python-based webscrapers and RPC services. Comfortable across Node.js, Express, MongoDB, Firebase, and Python, he bridges product and engineering needs and has participated in design sprints and customer discovery.
