Lauren Ashpole is a senior software engineer in New York with 12 years of experience building front-end driven web products and stepping into backend work when needed. She’s deeply fluent in JavaScript and CSS, with a track record modernizing stacks (Knockout→React/Redux, Rails asset pipeline→Webpack/Next.js) and shipping reusable component libraries and SDKs. At companies from Hearst to Catch she’s improved performance, accessibility, and SEO, built a cross-browser extension, and tackled tricky integrations like Plaid and Marqeta. Equally comfortable prototyping platform architectures and digging into build/performance tradeoffs, she pairs a designer-friendly sensibility with pragmatic engineering. Her background in English literature and early freelance theme work give her unusually strong product and communication instincts for clarifying requirements and documenting platforms.
