Masha Thomas is a SVP, Head of Engineering at Sony Music Entertainment at Sony Music Entertainment. She possess expertise in rest, software development, salesforce.com, microsoft sql server, python and 23 more skills. Colleagues describe her as "Masha is an exceptional tech leader. While at The Orchard I witnessed Masha lead multiple complex, large scale, business-critical projects with hard deadlines to support an influx of new labels using our application. These projects required her to manage a large number of teams and resources (both onshore and offshore, full time and consultants). Not only were they all delivered on time and to spec, her team was also able to migrate a large number of systems from our legacy monolith to a new microservice-oriented architecture using more modern technologies and frameworks. A large part of what led to Masha’s successful execution of her projects was the tech culture she helped build at The Orchard. Masha is technical enough to help guide her teams to make good technical architecture choices. She also trusts her engineers and makes sure they have the tools and process needed so they have the autonomy to introduce new patterns and build working applications without being blocked. I highly recommend Masha as an engineering leader who can be trusted to deliver successful projects. I also highly recommend Masha as someone will create a culture her engineers will enjoy and can successful in.", "It was a pleasure working with Masha. She is incredible knowledgeable about whatever domain she is dealing with. Masha as a manager consistently gave me the runway to do the correct thing for the job at hand. She additionally coached me into honing my architecture skills, and how to communicate the designs.", and "Masha is a very detail-oriented, extremely astute developer. In all of my projects with her she had the very good knack of distilling the user requirements into practical development terms, and was particularly good at identifying potential pitfalls (and providing alternative solutions). She also has the rare trait of being fluent in both "techie" and "business". I highly recommend Masha :)"
