Top SchoolSahil Yadav is a Senior Software Engineer based in San Francisco with a decade of experience building performant, user-focused web platforms for startups and YC-backed companies. He specializes in modern front-end stacks (React, Next.js, TypeScript) and full-stack integrations with Python/Django and Node, while leveraging AWS services to optimize delivery and cost. Sahil has a track record of shipping features that materially improve product metrics—reducing payloads by up to 20x, doubling mobile Lighthouse scores, and enabling $500K+ monthly contractor payments. He codified engineering standards and CI/CD practices, enforced security posture improvements (100/100 Mozilla Observatory), and rescued critical onboarding flows that impacted platform reliability. Known for pragmatic problem-solving born from a childhood curiosity for quirky hacks, he balances polish and scalability to move products from prototype to production. Outside work he’s a cat person—an understated detail that surfaces in his lightweight, collaborative approach to engineering.
