Rachel H is a software engineer and associate analyst based in the New York City area with eight years of experience building responsive, data-driven web applications. She has shipped front-end and full-stack projects for the NYC Department of Education and led core feature development and state management redesign for Svelvet, an open-source Svelte diagramming library that reached 2K GitHub stars and increased npm downloads significantly. Comfortable with JavaScript (ES6+), React, Node.js and Svelte, she pairs pragmatic engineering with strong UX sensibilities to make interactive visualizations and dashboards more accessible to educators and administrators. Her work on Svelvet also raised test coverage from zero to over 80%, reflecting a focus on reliability and maintainability. Prior experience as a classroom teacher informs her collaborative, user-centered approach to product development and documentation. Outside of work she teaches, studies new technologies, and brings a musician’s attention to detail to design and interaction.
