# Ben Benedek

> Software Engineer at Meta

Location: Brooklyn, New York, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/benbenedek

I'm a highly motivated, self-driven software engineer with backend orientation. I’m a quick and independent learner who thrives in fast-moving and impactful teams, working on consumer facing or backend/frameworks for consumer facing products.

Historically I was the happiest when working on end-to-end stacks of “unproven products”, which required fast iteration, delivery and learning/experimentation cycles. I also enjoyed working on service oriented/event driven architectures and projects (either from scratch or existing) with high performance/reliability requirements.

Throughout my career I have 4 YoE in various leadership roles (tech / team lead), enabling XFN teams (including Eng/Design/Product/BI ICs) working on multiple consumer facing domains/projects.
