Senior🎓
Top SchoolToru Ochiai is a Staff Software Engineer based in Tokyo with 11 years of experience building web platforms and localized product experiences at Indeed. He specializes in Java (Java 8+), modern JavaScript (ES2016+), HTML5/CSS3, and database design across PostgreSQL, MySQL and NoSQL systems, bringing full-stack fluency to UI-driven, data-backed products. At Indeed he progressed from engineer to staff, leading Japan-focused initiatives that go beyond translation to redesign interfaces and add features tailored to local jobseekers and employers. His background includes launching consumer-facing services in Japan and managing technical teams, evidencing both product ownership and people leadership. Comfortable operating at the intersection of frontend polish and backend scalability, he repeatedly turns regional requirements into production-ready features. Colleagues would note his pragmatic approach to localization engineering—treating cultural adaptation as a product problem as much as a technical one.
