Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolYuqing Zhao is a Software Engineer II based in Waterloo with eight years of engineering experience and a strong full-stack focus spanning Java Spring backends and React frontends. Currently at Workday, she builds and maintains cloud-native web applications, drawing on prior roles at Veeva where she delivered end-to-end Vault RIM features and at IBM where she worked on integrating open-source databases into Cloud Pak for Data. Her background blends practical product delivery—hot fixes, async job services, and drag-and-drop UI features—with infrastructure experience in Kubernetes/OpenShift and AWS. A University of Waterloo MEng graduate with top academic performance before that at Dalian Maritime University, she moves quickly from business requirements to elegant, testable code. Colleagues describe her as able to learn complex domains fast and juggle multiple priorities while shipping production features. Beyond the obvious, she has hands-on experience implementing protocol-level changes (e.g., UDP discovery encryption) that reflect a comfort with both high-level application design and low-level system details.
