Jason Chen’s Summary

In my first year at Google, I helped launch Google Checkout. This included integrating ~20 merchants with the service before coming out of closed beta. I also bootstrapped, built out, and then managed a team of 8 support engineers for the Checkout API.

I've since moved into a developer advocate role for Android.
