Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolThomas Vo is a Senior Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building user-focused mobile and web products, currently leading core React Native capture features at OpenSpace that generate terabytes of 4K video monthly. A former founder and CTO, he scaled a Vietnam rental marketplace to 200k users and co-founded an engineering firm, giving him deep product, ops, and startup instincts alongside hands-on engineering. He excels at stabilizing high-debt codebases, implementing robust testing and background processing, and shipping pragmatic UX improvements that measurably move metrics. Thomas pairs full-stack fluency (React Native, TypeScript, Kotlin/ObjC, Node/Mongo) with cross-functional collaboration—working directly with data science, camera vendors, and support to close the loop from telemetry to product decisions. He also contributes developer-facing tooling (including a unique react-native zoomable view library) and mentors teams to deliver simplified, maintainable code. Known for fostering psychological safety and growth, he prioritizes code that delivers real user value rather than engineering for its own sake.
