Scott Tran is a software engineer with eight years of experience building reliable systems at scale, currently at Two Sigma after several progressive engineering roles at AWS. He brings a strong CS foundation from UT Austin’s Turing Scholars program and practical experience across cloud services, large-scale production systems, and intern/teaching roles that emphasize mentorship and clear communication. Scott is motivated by building tech that improves safety and health, and he consistently seeks to learn and tackle hard problems rather than merely maintain the status quo. His background includes hands-on cloud engineering at AWS and early teaching roles where he customized curricula for learners, reflecting both technical depth and an ability to translate complex concepts. Based in Texas, he combines enterprise experience with a developer’s curiosity and a track record of shipping impact-driven solutions. Notably, his career progression shows rapid growth within AWS into more senior engineering responsibilities before moving to quant-driven engineering at Two Sigma.
