Summary
Tanner Wauchope is a Senior Software Engineer based in Berkeley with 13 years of experience building full-stack web systems and ML-driven tooling. He currently works at Google and previously led engineering efforts at Cruise to create large-scale machine learning datasets for self-driving cars, designing the video annotation database schema and shipping automated object-tracking integrations that doubled some labelers’ throughput. His background includes production services at Workday—where he implemented adaptive Boolean ordering, spell correction for search, and large-scale test generation—and early product work in healthcare integrations. Tanner blends backend, frontend, and data-focused engineering, with hands-on experience compiling C++ vision code to WebAssembly and instrumenting monitoring and CI across polyglot repos. He’s comfortable turning ambiguous, cross-team requirements into practical, measurable systems and enjoys improving human-in-the-loop workflows that multiply team productivity.
