# Nicole N. > Full-Stack Software Engineer | Ex-Meta, 2x Startup Location: New York, New York, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/nicolen I’m a full-stack software engineer who thrives in early-stage startups and greenfield teams. I love building from scratch and solving real problems with a user-first approach. At Marker Learning, I built tools to speed up report writing for school psychologists, improving access to special education. At Meta, my focus was on internal tooling.
