Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPeter Yamanaka is a Lead Software Engineer with 11 years of experience building production web and mobile applications from startup prototypes to client-facing products. Based in Irvine, he blends frontend leadership—React and modern web stacks—with full-stack and CI/CD responsibilities, and a deep practical knowledge of Android development using Jetpack, Kotlin, and reactive patterns. He has repeatedly led framework migrations and feature delivery (including PDF/report generation and real-time features), and he helps shape release pipelines, automation, and developer documentation. A product-minded engineer and fast learner, he moves between shipping polished UIs and implementing backend or systems work as needed, often wearing the “start-upper” hat. Notably, he maintains independent Android work and open-source experiments while currently leading engineering for GenAI security and a venture studio, demonstrating both entrepreneurial grit and steady technical stewardship.
