Dominic Kuang

Dominic is a full-stack web developer who enjoys learning and applying new development techniques and tools, integrating them within Ruby and JavaScript frameworks like Rails and React, with a little Python and Java thrown in the mix, for fun.

Prior to his current role at Beezwax, Dominic worked as an engineering lead for a real estate tech startup, then as a full-stack web dev at a software consultancy, and most recently as an engineer for Amazon Web Services, building out AWS offerings for Interactive SQL, AI/ML and analytics. 

One of Dominic's favorite early learning projects was a monitoring application to let an office staff know if a private room was occupied: "That was a pretty fun project for me since I was able to program Python on Raspberry Pi, something I’d never done before." Unfortunately the whole company thought they were getting timed or spied on, so it was taken down. He says, "from that project I learned the importance of user privacy!"

Dominic is a UC San Diego graduate with a B.S. in General Biology and a minor in computer science. Outside of work, Dominic’s life often revolves around his dog Rumi. She’s now a middle-aged Shiba Inu who tends to be a brat requiring a lot of attention. When they have free time, you will find Dominic and Rumi at a local dog park or meetups.
