Building a Matchmaking Business with JavaScript

Technology choices are critical to the thriving of a business and team, from tech stack to system design – to choosing what NOT to build. Join Loc Nguyen (https://www.linkedin.com/in/loctngu/), co-founder and CTO of ValleyMatch, as he walks through tech decisions of operating a dating /matchmaking startup.

Loc has two decades of experience shipping software products across enterprise, internal, and consumer customers. Most recently, Loc spent 5 years helping Cruise launch the world’s first urban-dense autonomous rideshare service, scaling its product engineering teams.
