What do you appreciate most about Tango, as a working parent?

Working at Tango provides me a lot of flexibility so I can be a good parent. I attend school events, I’m there for my kids when they’re sick, and it’s easy to turn off work at the end of the day and go be with my family.

What’s an interesting problem you’ve solved at Tango?

My team worked on our Chrome Extension that seamlessly guides users through web pages. We developed a performant algorithm to reliably find elements on webpages, even after re-designs and changes.

Senior Software Engineer

What has working at Tango meant for your career?

Working at Tango has given me the opportunity to reach outside of my comfort zone. As a primarily front-end focused developer, I’ve had the chance to work on multiple facets of our codebase and develop new skills in areas I normally wouldn’t have access to. I have also been empowered to take on responsibilities beyond engineering and help shape product decisions.
