# Skye C. > Staff Software Engineer at Airbnb Location: Sunnyvale, California, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/skye ## Work Experience ### Staff Software Engineer @ Airbnb Jan 2021 – Present | San Francisco, California, United States ### Staff Software Engineer @ LinkedIn Jan 2018 – Jan 2021 Technical lead on the Commerce platform team building the next generation of ordering, quoting, billing and provisioning systems to power an ambitious, growth-focused LinkedIn enterprise ecosystem. Designed, architected, and orchestrated a multi-billion dollar cross-team migration project to move data from Salesforce CRM to Dynamics 365 and our newly developed sales platform, Abacus, seamlessly without service interruption to our enterprise customers. Led several key onboarding projects of LinkedIn's core business lines such as Ads and Talent Solutions onto the new enterprise sales experience. Drove multiple projects to enhance the capabilities of the pricing and quoting systems to accommodate for modern complex models required by our sales teams. Created multiple modules for different pricing modes such as spreadsheet, rule-based, and an engine dynamically loaded pricing logic to power easier integration by non-technical teams. ### Senior Software Engineer @ LinkedIn Jan 2016 – Jan 2018 | San Francisco Bay Area ### Software Engineer @ LinkedIn Jan 2014 – Jan 2016 Engineer on Team Velvet, the frontend experience team for LinkedIn Payments. One of the original designers and principal engineers of Project Velvet, a complete redesign and rewrite of the aging checkout experience that has resulted in high value returns in revenue and conversion rate due to the redesign, and daily 24/7 deployment for quick turnaround as a result of the rewrite. From a legacy service that regularly took weeks to deploy and had a one-size-doesn't-fit-all experience, our project helps to both ease friction by customizing the experience per product, as well as iterate much faster than before. Also wrote and am currently maintaining quality-of-life tooling for test authorship and execution that is used across many monetization teams. ### Software Engineering Intern @ LinkedIn Jan 2013 – Jan 2013 | San Francisco Bay Area Created a payments catalog tool that allowed for viewing of prices, products and promotions across LinkedIn. Instead of having to query the database directly, the catalog allowed for users with permission to view in a simple-to-use UI service of payments related data, with extensibility built in for create/update/delete as well. ### Software Engineering Intern @ Guidewire Software Jan 2012 – Jan 2012 ## Education ### Bachelor of Science (BS) in EECS University of California, Berkeley ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/skyemchen --- Source: https://flows.cv/skye JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/skye/resume.json Last updated: 2026-04-12
