# Jason Hu > Software Engineer Location: San Francisco, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/jasonhu I'm looking for a small, fast-growing team with a distinct perspective on our planet's biggest, systemic issues. Over the last eight years, I've worked as a full-stack developer across multiple startups and SaaS companies. Throughout these roles, I've prided myself on designing systems with an eye toward quality and longevity, working collaboratively with all stakeholders, and contributing to an engineering culture of support and inclusivity. For a next role, I'm looking to tackle product challenges as a strong technical contributor. In doing so, I'm hoping to grow from a strong individual contributor into a teammate who excels at bringing interdisciplinary perspectives together to tackle messy problems with rigor. If you're a company that has an unwavering commitment to quality, entrusts teammates with ownership and accountability, and goes above-and-beyond to foster the learning and curiosity of the team, I'd love to hear from you. ## Work Experience ### Senior Software Engineer @ Zipline Jan 2024 – Present | South San Francisco, California, United States ### Climatebase Fellow @ Climatebase Jan 2024 – Present Participating in Cohort 6 of the Climatebase Fellowship, the climate career accelerator ### Software Engineer @ Front Jan 2022 – Jan 2023 | San Francisco Bay Area Front provides an enterprise customer-communication platform.
