Akash Sharma — Software Engineer
I build web products that scale — and I use every tool available to do it well, including AI-assisted development workflows that help me ship faster without cutting corners. Over the past 4+ years, I've shipped features used by 200M+ users at Vimeo and built enterprise talent platforms at SHL that organizations worldwide rely on for hiring and talent management. My work sits at the intersection of frontend engineering, performance optimization, and product thinking — I care as much about why something is built as how it's built. At Vimeo, I owned core features of Review 2.0 — a video collaboration product serving enterprise and self-serve users globally. I architected reusable React and TypeScript component systems, reduced initial load time by 20%, and integrated REST APIs that contributed to ~20% growth in subscription revenue. Alongside the code, I authored technical design specs and conducted 200+ pull request reviews — because shipping fast means nothing if the foundation isn't solid. At SHL, three years of building Talent Mobility and Talent Central+ taught me what it really means to own a product. I designed accessible MUI component libraries adopted across teams, cut regression issues by 28%, reduced load time by 30%, and led a legacy migration that reduced technical debt by 40%. I was promoted and awarded Top Performer — not for working the hardest, but for consistently delivering what mattered. What I bring to a team: — Deep React.js and TypeScript expertise with a strong eye for performance and scalability — End-to-end ownership from technical design to deployment — 350+ code reviews across two companies — I take engineering standards seriously — Experience building for real scale: 200M+ users, 99.999% uptime systems Tech I work with: React.js · TypeScript · JavaScript · Node.js · REST APIs · Docker · Kubernetes · AWS · Redux Toolkit · MUI · Chakra UI · Jest · CI/CD · Microservices I am always a git clone away from a new problem worth solving.
