Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMichelle He is a Senior Staff Software Engineer in the San Francisco Bay Area with a decade of experience building full-stack web and mobile applications and driving architecture and delivery at Checkr. She blends a strong front-end focus (React/Redux, Angular, responsive UI) with backend and data expertise (Node, Postgres, MongoDB, Elasticsearch) and a disciplined approach to modular, maintainable code. Her open-source contributions to Cloud Foundry’s cloud_controller_ng and CLI show hands-on work improving user management, API behavior, and CLI tooling for a widely used cloud platform. Michelle’s background includes a prior engineering career in structural engineering and an M.S. from UC Berkeley, reflecting a systems-minded problem solver who moved from physical to software infrastructure. She’s comfortable across the stack and the lifecycle—from schema design and testing to CI/CD and production deployments—and often surfaces pragmatic, less obvious improvements in integrations and access control.
