Tim Collins is a Director of Engineering at Masterclass, Inc.. Colleagues describe him as "Tim is a premier software engineering manager (and software engineer). Tim has all the tools to be an exceptional software engineering people leader. First and foremost Tim is a team builder. The teams Tim managed were, without a doubt, the top performing teams within the company. Not only did Tim's teams deliver superior performance it was clear they also had the highest social cohesion. It was clear that Tim's direct supports thrived under his guidance. Tim likes to lead through context not control: Tim prefers to help his direct supports understand the context of what is valuable to the company and then unlock their latent potential to succeed over telling them what and how to do their job. Tim is the kind of guy who wouldn't ask somebody to do something he wouldn't do himself. The net result is that you will often find Tim doing the "dirty" work or the behind the scenes work that unblock his teams to focus on the things that they love doing. The results are obvious: Tim's teams deliver exceptional results. I would absolutely love to work with Tim again in the future."
