Location: San Francisco Bay Area, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/victorwong

Senior Software Engineer with 10 years of experience delivering high-impact products at both early-stage startups and FAANG-scale companies. At Meta, I’ve built core messaging infrastructure for WhatsApp—boosting large-group encryption speed by over 5× on low end devices, enabling secure multi-device E2EE, and safeguarding user privacy through account architecture changes. Previously, as one of four founding engineers at Fieldwire, I designed offline sync strategies for massive construction datasets, helped slash iOS crash rates by over 85%, and contributed to an eventual $300M acquisition. Skilled across Swift, Objective-C, C++, Python, SQL, Rust, and JavaScript, I thrive on building performant, user-centric applications that scale from millions to billions of users.
