Summary
Yash Srivastav is a software engineer at Meta in London with 11 years of hands-on experience building scalable web and backend systems. He brings a strong full-stack background from his IIT Kanpur roots, having implemented security features, OAuth integrations, and a Redux-style Angular rewrite for production web applications. His internships and open-source work span reproducible build tooling, Debian packaging automation, and contributions to large codebases like LibreOffice, reflecting a solid grounding in systems and supply-chain security. Comfortable across Scala, TypeScript, Python and infrastructure tooling such as Ansible, he balances frontend integrations (ProseMirror, Angular) with backend robustness. Known for mentoring and community-building—organizing programming camps and coordinating large event sites—he combines technical depth with a knack for teaching and scaling engineering practices. Outside of Meta, he has repeatedly taken initiative to ship end-to-end solutions that bridge research, security, and production engineering.
