Shawn Tabrizi

Shawn Tabrizi is a full-time engineer living in Berlin.

I was born and raised in the heart of the bay area, a breeding pool of technology and innovation. I first started programming at the age of 13, trying to learn how to hack my PlayStation Portable so that I could play free games. Through the PSP hacking community, I learned about the vast potential surrounding computers, programming, and the internet.

I graduated from the College of Creative Studies at the University of California, Santa Barbara studying Physics and Mathematics. I joined Microsoft less than a month later to work on Microsoft Azure, their cloud computing services.

I recently joined Parity Technologies as a Core Developer working on blockchain infrastructure and the future of the decentralized web.
