Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolSparshith Rai is a Senior Software Engineer with 9 years of experience, currently improving the LinkedIn Ads creation workflow from Sunnyvale. He brings deep front-end and build-system expertise—at LinkedIn he cut web framework build times in half and led company-wide adoption of a developer-friendly UI library. His open-source work includes meaningful contributions to the embroider project, enhancing Ember app compilation and template resolution, reflecting a practical mastery of JS tooling (hence "JS.everywhere()"). Comfortable across the full stack, he pairs rigorous academic training (MS, USC) with a track record of shipping performance-focused developer tooling and UX-driven interfaces. Notably, he blends large-scale product impact with low-level build and template engineering that few UI-focused engineers routinely own.
