Laurie Voss
Web Developer at Arize AI
San Francisco, California, United States
Summary
🤩
RockstarLaurie Voss is a seasoned web developer and startup operator based in San Francisco with over 14 years building sites, systems, and developer-facing products. He started a web company in high school and spent the first part of his career hands-on across front-end, backend, DBAs, and ops before co-founding and leading two startups in CTO/COO/CDO roles. Laurie specializes in turning messy, high-volume data into actionable insight—knowing what to collect, how to instrument it, and which questions to ask to drive product and business decisions. He remains an active open-source contributor, improving documentation and tooling for widely used projects like npm’s docs and community repos. Comfortable toggling between code and strategy, he brings entrepreneurial grit and a practical, build-first mentality to scaling web platforms and developer ecosystems. An underappreciated strength is his long history of shipping incremental UX and documentation improvements that significantly lower friction for other developers.
