Senior🎓
Top SchoolWesley Sun is a Staff Software Engineer at LinkedIn with 14 years of full-stack experience designing simple, well-crafted systems. He progressed through multiple engineering roles at LinkedIn after the acquisition of Sendbloom, where he owned third-party integrations and built an inter-window message passing platform from scratch. Comfortable across front-end and back-end stacks, Wesley has improved engineering workflows by introducing pre-commit hooks, consolidating build tooling, and adding chat-ops to release processes. He brings a pragmatic focus on maintainability and compliance—having led framework migrations and HIPAA-related application changes earlier in his career. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he pairs a strong academic foundation (BS/MS, Northwestern) with a track record of shipping integration-heavy, customer-focused features at scale.
