Vice President of Engineering
San Francisco, California, United States
I lead engineering at Atticus. We are a small team of exceptional engineers, all of whom care intensely about craft and the impact our work has in the lives of our clients.
We're building a tech-first consumer law firm to help Americans in crisis access the aid they need; in 2025, we helped over 100k people claim Social Security Disability Insurance benefits.
If you're hungry for work on a tight-knit team where the things you ship deeply matter to the people we serve, drop me a line! Come build with us!

In past roles at Stripe & Yelp, I've helped rapidly scale new consumer, b2b, & marketplace products, repeatedly building high-functioning engineering teams from scratch:
● At Stripe, I developed several new API products for Stripe's core payments users, scaling a xfn team from 8 to nearly 70 people in 18 months.
● I spent 10 years at Yelp, ultimately as VP of Engineering leading our Marketplaces org of 150 engineers. I owned several product verticals, including restaurant reservation management & our local service lead generation marketplaces.
● As the Head of Engineering for Yelp Eat24, I owned all aspects engineering including hiring and team culture, partnership with product & GTM leaders on company strategy, core technical strategy/scaling, and end-to-end technical execution. I scaled the engineering team from 6 to 50 as we grew gross transaction revenue from $150M->$700M.
