Supporting data analytics

LaunchScience was a venture-backed startup building a product-launch workflow product. I oversaw all aspects of technology and managed all technical employees. We were acquired by Octane11 in Q4 2023.

Managed a team of 8 ML Engineers responsible for building the ML pipelines platform for product ML teams. We supported Twitter Ads and the Timelines tweet ranking teams, among others. I left before Elon.

I was in the first 15 employees. Beeswax was acquired in 2021. This was a very small and very productive team operating at tremendous scale (millions of requests per second). We built a strong business with great engineering; Beeswax grew both in headcount and revenue by ~10x while I was there. I founded the App Team in my 2nd year at Beeswax and stepped up to lead it.

I was employee 40. This was my first exposure to software engineering at scale and what it takes to build a great product. Nextdoor went public in 2021.
