Speaker: Jenna Zeigen
Staff Engineer @Slack
One morning, Jenna awoke to find that she had transformed into a programmer, and she’s been psyched about coding ever since. Now she’s a Staff Engineer at Slack where she’s on the Client Performance Infrastructure team, making Slack faster every day and building a performance culture rooted in understanding the inner-workings of the systems the app is built on. Outside of this, Jenna has been an organizer of several JavaScript communities and gets immense joy out of explaining complex topics in unique ways.
