David Lam — Design Engineer

David joined us as an intern at TinyBox, but pretty quickly didn’t feel like one.

We move fast and things are often a bit chaotic, and he just leaned into that. I remember we had a ton of raw footage from our builds sitting around, and he took it on himself to turn it into something we could actually use. That ended up becoming one of the cleanest ways we showed what we were building.

More broadly, he just gets things done. Whether it was the website, content, product, or even helping out with interiors or random on-site tasks, he showed up and made things better. He also played a big role in how we tell our story, translating fairly complex engineering into something customers and partners could actually understand.

He picks things up fast, takes ownership, and brings a strong creative touch to everything he works on. Super easy to work with too, which matters a lot in a small team.

TinyBox genuinely benefited from having him on the team. Really glad we had him with us. Excited to see what he does next.

David is a full-stack builder who simultaneously wears multiple hats between product, design, brand, and growth.

At TinyBox, he helped take ideas that were still pretty early and turn them into real products and customer-facing experiences. He has strong customer instincts and a good sense for what actually matters to users, which shows up in how he approaches product decisions, storytelling, and the details of how things are shipped.

A lot of what he’s done here, he taught himself along the way. He’s grown quickly while working on everything from early marketing sites in Squarespace to helping build our entire web app from scratch, which he continuously improves by launching features and testing with customers. He built a rendering system that combines 3D models with AI to generate product visuals, condensing days of work into minutes and unlocking a wow experience for customers that would have otherwise been too expensive for us to offer.
