Senior Software Engineer - Bay Area

Terry Chen

I build product-minded systems, AI agent harnesses, and client-facing software that has to work in the real world.

Now

What I am working on now

I am a Senior Software Engineer at Flexport, currently building AI agents and harnesses for billing and finance workflows. Before this, I worked as a full-stack product engineer on Flexport's client app team, owning client-facing products end to end.

Engineering style

The kind of problems I like

Agent harnesses

Building practical systems around AI agents so they can operate against real workflows, constraints, and feedback loops.

Product judgment

Shaping ambiguous ideas into useful product surfaces, with enough UX sense to make the details matter.

Full-stack execution

I work across the stack and keep product momentum in fast-moving teams.

Outside the console

A little more about me

I live in the Bay Area and like work that sits close to users. Outside of work, I am usually looking for good food, planning the next trip, drinking coffee, or playing games.

Bay Area

Based around San Francisco.

Coffee

A reliable part of the daily loop.

Travel & food

Best when those two show up together.

Games

Still one of my favorite ways to unwind.

Play some little game

LOL, I found this little Snake game I built in school more than 10 years ago on my old laptop. Wanna take a break?
