Top SchoolMitch Lin is a Senior Software Engineer in San Francisco with 10 years of experience building scalable backend systems and data-driven features for high-growth product teams. He has shipped production services at scale—leading a team that enabled 30 reviewers to label 8k daily dashcam events and building observability to track 100k actions a day—directly unblocking million-dollar enterprise deals. Mitch’s core strengths include Golang, gRPC/protobuf, distributed systems, and pragmatic observability (Datadog/New Relic), with frontend exposure to GraphQL/TypeScript/React and practical computer vision work using Python/OpenCV. He has contributed to low-level infrastructure work at Cisco Meraki (proprietary VPN, Little Table integrations) and tied firmware, ML, and backend interfaces together at Samsara, showing an uncommon ability to span hardware-adjacent systems to cloud services. A UC Berkeley EECS graduate with a 3.8 GPA, he pairs rigorous academic training with a track record of leading design discussions and mentoring engineers through recurring system design sessions. Mitch is drawn to hard reliability and scaling problems where measurable operational improvements translate directly to product and revenue impact.
