🤩
RockstarSophia Z is a Bay Area–based full-stack software engineer with 8 years of experience who transitioned from biology-focused studies to building polished, user-centered web and mobile applications. She blends a designer’s eye for UI/UX with backend optimization skills—having scaled APIs to thousands of requests per second, implemented caching and load balancing on AWS, and improved Lighthouse metrics to speed up real-world sites. Proficient across React/React Native, Python/Node, PostgreSQL/MongoDB, and testing tools like Jest and k6, she brings pragmatic DevOps experience (EC2, S3, RDS) to ensure reliable deployments. She’s mentored bootcamp students and led Agile teams during multiple personal projects, demonstrating both technical depth and an ability to onboard others quickly. Outside of code she channels visual sensibilities into photography and film, which informs her strong UI instincts and attention to detail.
