# Trang Doan > Software Engineer; Writing at trangdoan.substack.com Location: New York, New York, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/trangdoan I enjoy problem-solving in all of its forms. Whether it is building an app from scratch, rearranging my college dorm room, to video making, I find the process of pinning an idea down, breaking it into subproblems, and finding creative ways to tackle them super gratifying. Outside work, I enjoy dancing (urban hip-hop), martial arts, and cracking bad jokes. ## Work Experience ### Software Engineer @ Brex Jan 2023 – Jan 2024 | New York, New York, United States ### Software Engineer Intern @ Brex Jan 2022 – Jan 2022 | San Francisco, California, United States - Revamped Snowflake access control, migrating from Terraform Enterprise to Airflow and Python tasks, reducing update time by 80%. - Collaborated with IT team, integrated Snowflake with Okta SCIM to automate onboarding new users. - Prototyped team-level Snowflake access control with Python, promising to reduce runtime by 20%. ### Web Developer Internship @ teethlovers Jan 2021 – Jan 2021 | Berlin, Germany Created a widget that updates the environmental impact of Teethlovers' product sales. ### Software Engineer Intern @ YoGov Jan 2021 – Jan 2021 | Oakland, California, United States - Developed back-end logic for features such as wikipedia page about DMV, resulting in 10% traffic to DMV services; developed real-time charts on admin page to inform director board’s decision-making. - Migrated EIDL Loans database with 10 million+ entries using AWS RDS and created full-stack EIDL search page with Typescript, React, Docker. - Part of 4-people engineering team that restructured the codebase, migrating four separate projects into one, taking advantage of Nexus-GraphQL, NextJS, and Prisma.
