Top SchoolVaidehi Joshi is a Senior Software Engineer and engineering leader based in Portland, Oregon, with 11 years of experience building resilient web products and mentoring teams. She blends hands-on front-end craftsmanship—evident from contributions to the popular Forem open-source community platform—with backend Rails expertise from roles at Forem, Skylight, and Vimeo. At Vimeo she shifted between IC and managerial roles, driving frontend accessibility, async remote collaboration practices, and a culture of incremental delivery. She's equally at home writing and teaching, having cohosted a developer podcast and created formal mentorship and RFC processes to improve engineering decision-making. Fluent in translating product needs into shipped features, she brings a rare mix of editorial clarity and technical rigor rooted in a humanities background.
