Top SchoolScott Cooper is a Senior Frontend Engineer in San Francisco with 14 years of experience building polished, user-focused web applications across startups and large tech companies, currently shaping Sentry’s frontend.

His background includes senior roles at Zume and Walmart eCommerce and early engineering foundations at PunchTab and Facebook, giving him a mix of product-facing and infrastructure-aware engineering judgment.

A Bay Area engineer who jokes about token management on GitHub, he’s comfortable shipping cross-cutting changes that improve both usability and build reliability.
