Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolVicky Tu is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience building production-grade systems across consumer mobile, web, and router firmware. A UC Berkeley CS graduate, she has shipped user-facing features at Google Pixel (Call Assist's scam detection, Next‑Gen Call Screen, Hold For Me) and now works on YouTube’s Main App Web Embeds. Earlier roles at Cisco and Udacity blend low-level systems work—UEFI bootloader, SELinux enablement, secure MCU firmware upgrades and netboot—with developer-facing Android course creation. Based in Oakland, she pairs deep systems engineering with product sensibility and mentorship (Girls in Tech), and brings an uncommon mix of firmware, mobile, and web expertise that helps surface practical security and UX improvements across the stack.
