Top SchoolLauren Leite is a Senior Software Engineer in San Diego with eight years of full-stack experience building user-focused web applications using React, Node.js, and Python. She has driven measurable product improvements at eBay (including a 6% uplift in add-to-cart clicks and resolving 85+ accessibility issues) and at Sisu where she launched features that boosted daily engagement and simplified secure data access for non-technical users. Comfortable across front-end and back-end, she’s implemented integration testing, debugging tooling that cut troubleshooting time by 80%, and production-ready auth and UX improvements. A former lead teaching assistant, Lauren pairs hands-on mentorship with pragmatic engineering practices to speed team onboarding and delivery. She thrives in fast-paced environments, rapidly learning new languages and frameworks, and brings a competitive, results-oriented background (from coaching rowing to hackathon wins) that surfaces in both product impact and collaboration.
