Summary
Yosri Amarneh is a seasoned Senior Principal Software Development Engineer with over 15 years of experience designing backend systems, APIs, and full-stack solutions, currently leading Globalization efforts at Yahoo in Sunnyvale. He specializes in migrating and modernizing large localization platforms into cloud-native architectures (AWS/EKS), improving performance and security while reducing operational costs. His work spans Java-based microservices, low-latency storage optimizations, and complex data migrations—one project reduced an 11-hour batch job to 40 minutes and consolidated hundreds of legacy tables into a streamlined schema. Yosri combines hands-on coding with team leadership, mentoring engineers through code reviews, CI/CD automation, and best-practice adoption. He has deep practical experience removing JNI dependency by reimplementing C++ language tooling in multithreaded Java and delivering browser-based remote in-context localization tooling that eliminated local installs. Based in Sunnyvale, he brings a pragmatic balance of performance tuning, security (mTLS/Okta/OIDC), and developer ergonomics to large-scale product engineering.
