Bio
Yifan Zhang
I've worked directly with Rob since he joined our team at Cash App. During the past year, we worked on developing compliance and permission tooling for customer operations. Despite every project having a high degree of ambiguity, he was eager to dive in and figure things out. He's an expert frontend React/Typescript developer, but I've also noticed that he is willing to take on the dependent backend work too—Rob doesn't let backend or frontend boundaries deter him from making progress. I'm glad he is on my team. He's friendly, conscientious and I always feel comfortable going to him when I need help.
