Summary
Justin Washington is a versatile software engineer with 12 years of experience who blends strong foundations in graphics, AI/ML, and web development with a bias for shipping pragmatic solutions. Currently contributing to Remitly’s finance product team, he has previously driven features at Redfin and built AI-infused trading tools and curriculum-level graphics tooling using Vulkan. Comfortable across Python, React, Java, Prolog and low-level C/C++, he excels at jumping into unfamiliar stacks and delivering working systems quickly. His work on education and non-profit projects shows a knack for translating complex technical needs into practical tools that support community impact. Passionate about beautiful, secure code, he pairs curiosity about protocols, rasterization, and interpreters with a commitment to social justice, simplicity, and sustainability. Colleagues describe him as malleable and mission-driven—a “pirate” who likes to ship.
