Yash Yadav is a Senior Backend Engineer with 9 years of experience building scalable, secure systems and developer experiences, currently shaping TestGorilla’s APIs and backend platform used by millions. He is AI-native and vision-driven, blending deep backend craft (Python, Django/DRF, AWS, C#, .NET) with a taste for systems programming, self-hosted tooling and clean abstractions. Past roles include performance and cross-platform SDK work at Digital Guardian—where his profiling tools uncovered up to 54% improvement opportunities—and cloud-native microservices and Azure functions at MAQ. A certified Scrum Master and mentor, he accelerates onboarding across stacks and leverages AI to boost team output without diluting ownership. Outside product work he builds personal projects (personal finance app, Chrome extension, newsletter platform) and maintains an evolving public portfolio that reflects his emphasis on sustainable, long-lived systems.
