Software Engineer II at Wealthfront
Palo Alto, California, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJordan Wood is an iOS-focused Software Engineer II in Palo Alto with nine years of experience building consumer-facing apps and backend services. At Wealthfront he delivers cash account features using Swift, UIKit, and SwiftUI, and has adopted Java to better lead cross-platform initiatives and accelerate end-to-end test performance. Previously he designed and shipped high‑visibility apps single‑handedly for brands like FTP and Derschutze that collectively earned hundreds of thousands of downloads and Apple Top 100 placement. His internships at Climate and NCAR show a knack for performance optimization and scalable architecture—refactoring legacy Objective-C to Swift, improving map performance by 75%, and building queue-based systems with RabbitMQ. Equally comfortable in product and engineering trenches, he blends polished mobile UX instincts with backend reliability to move features from concept to production. Outside work he’s often found chasing waves at a point break, a hint at his persistence and taste for momentum.
