Summary
Katt Baum is a Software Engineer III with eight years of experience building user-focused, data-driven web applications, currently contributing to PMG’s engineering efforts in New York. She’s a full-stack practitioner who led major frontend initiatives at Shipyard—owning code quality, migrating the UI from JavaScript to TypeScript, and redesigning the product’s most-used flows—while also shipping backend Go services and analytics instrumentation. Katt blends product sensibility with technical craft, having acted as co-product manager with a CEO, driven feature experiments via event tracking, and translated research into Figma designs and measurable improvements. Her background in high-scale operations and data management at NYU informs a disciplined approach to data integrity, documentation, and cross-functional collaboration. Comfortable across frontend, backend, and product, she excels at turning user insights into reliable, production-ready features.
