Patrick Flanagan is a Senior Software Engineering Manager at Mindbody at Sheerba. Colleagues describe them as "I’ve worked with Patrick for almost two years at UNUM. In his time with the company, Patrick grew from iOS developer to Head of Engineering. Working with him as a product designer, I’ve found Patrick to be a great teammate and leader. I’ve learned so much from him about product development and strategy, optimizing processes, project management, and how to be a good leader. Patrick would be a great asset to any team. He is rational, resourceful, articulate, and has amazing forethought. " and "I worked alongside Patrick as a Software Engineer for almost two years. Patrick possesses all the qualities needed to succeed in any engineering role at any level. Patrick and I started working at UNUM around the same time, and I saw him quickly rise from an individual contributor to a team lead, and eventually to Head of Engineering. To our business leaders, and everyone else, it was immediately clear that Patrick could impact positive change at a company-wide level. As Head of Engineering, Patrick drove countless initiatives to accelerate the rate we ship new features. He accomplished this by overhauling our development pipeline and by offloading key functionality from our mobile app to our servers. These changes, along with many others, enabled the company to respond to market changes quicker than ever before. During his tenure, our iOS application went from a sub-4 star rating to 4.5 stars, and we nearly doubled our user-base. Patrick is not only hard-working and driven, but incredibly strategic and detailed. He’s a fun, interesting person to be around, and would be an instant culture fit anywhere he goes. Any organization would be lucky to have him."
