Rachel Engineer is a Software Engineer III with nine years of experience building reliable front-end systems, test automation, and accessibility-first products across startups and large companies. Currently at Stripe, she previously led engineering initiatives at Cypress.io that turned an accessibility POC into a revenue-generating product and ran A/B experiments to speed onboarding. She’s a hands-on test automation expert—contributing to the widely used Cypress open-source project and operationalizing Cypress suites at Intuit to improve deploy confidence. Rachel pairs product-minded engineering with a linguist’s attention to detail (Master’s in Translation Studies), which she leveraged to design multi-language frontends and streamline international launches. Known internally as collaborative and practical, she also brings experience saving costs through in-house tooling and mentoring teams on clean code and accessibility best practices.
