# Jeffrey Chan > Senior Software Engineer at Juniper Square Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/jeffreychan1 After taking an incredible opportunity to spend a year mentoring college students and young professionals in East Asia, I'm excited to return to a career in software engineering. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I'm passionate about developing technologies that will better the education of students around the world. I graduated from UC Berkeley having studied Computer Science, Global Poverty & Practice, and City Planning. I have worked for startups (Optimizely, Feeding Forward), established companies (LinkedIn, Wix, UC Berkeley), as well as non-profits (OASES, CompassPoint, WattTime). I believe that personal mentorship is key for encouraging children to keep working hard and not giving up in order to attain the education necessary to end the cycle of poverty. As a software engineer, I'm a full stack developer, having experience designing and building both the server and client side of real world web applications. I recently co-authored a book entitled "College Uncensored" featuring stories of disappointments and triumphs from college students. ## Work Experience ### Senior Software Engineer @ Juniper Square Jan 2021 – Present * Technical Lead for CrowdStreet + Juniper Square Integration * Technical Lead for Improvements to Financial Waterfall Engine project ### Senior Software Engineer @ Optimizely Jan 2019 – Jan 2021 | San Francisco Bay Area Optimizely is the world’s leading experience optimization platform, providing website and mobile A/B testing and personalization for the world’s leading brands.
