Tess Neau is a software engineer with 8 years of experience building user-focused web applications and troubleshooting large-scale logging systems at Datadog. Grounded in a Mathematics and Philosophy BA and formal training from Flatiron School, she pairs rigorous logical thinking with practical full‑stack skills—React, Ruby on Rails, REST APIs and data visualization—to turn client frustrations into polished, responsive products. Her trajectory from volunteer scheduling tools and interactive maps to senior technical escalations reflects a talent for untangling complex analytical problems and translating them into reliable engineering solutions. Based in New York, she is particularly driven by engineering social impact and has a track record of shipping features that improve operational visibility and user experience. An uncommon strength is her ability to move between deep incident analysis and front-end UX work, allowing her to bridge customer needs and backend observability.
