Jorge Yau is a Senior Engineering Manager with 12 years of experience building and scaling web and backend systems for high-growth startups, currently leading the Mortgage engineering vertical at Ocrolus. He combines hands-on technical leadership—drafting API contracts, reviewing PRs, and contributing code—with strategic product ownership, driving roadmaps for Index, Income, and Inspect revenue products. Jorge has a strong track record of modernizing legacy apps into robust dashboards using TypeScript, React, and Kubernetes, and of improving release and A/B experimentation processes to accelerate learning and reduce churn. He excels at cross-functional coordination across engineering, product, sales, and operations to deliver data-driven, user-centric solutions in change-resistant industries like mortgage. Known for automating tedious workflows and creating experimentation frameworks (e.g., Stash Canary), he prioritizes transparent communication, trust through autonomy, and measurable impact. Based in New York, he holds a BS in Computer Science and brings a balance of technical depth, operational rigor, and product empathy.
