Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSasha K is a GTM-focused engineering leader with 11 years of experience designing and shipping full-stack web applications across startups and enterprise engagements from San Francisco. They’ve led end-to-end projects—from modernizing payment and checkout systems with Stripe and NestJS to building type-safe, reusable React component libraries and Storybook ecosystems that bridge design and engineering. Sasha has a strong track record in performance, internationalization, feature-flag driven rollouts, and migrating API contracts (GraphQL → OpenAPI) to improve integration and maintainability. Comfortable in both product and consulting settings, they’ve driven architectural pivots (MUI → Tailwind/Radix), testing strategies (Jest/Cypress), and developer workflows that measurably increased team velocity. An unconventional plus: Sasha pairs a technical career with formal music studies and studio audio work, bringing a creative, detail-oriented perspective to UX and developer experience. Currently at Cursor, they focus on real-world AI deployment and adoption with practical, production-minded solutions.
