Senior Director, Software Engineering
Senior Director of Software Engineering
Trailhead
Sep 2018 - Oct 2021
Trailhead is Salesforce's Learning solution for the Customer 360 experience. We offer a free digital learning and community platform to enable anyone to upskill for the works of today and the future. We also offer an enterprise solution to help companies on-board and train their employees. I lead an ~60 engineers growing organization that is responsible for many product areas at Trailhead, especially those focusing on the end user experience. Throughout my tenure, I grew our engineering organization to - unlock new product areas in mobile (Trailhead GO iOS developed in Swift in partnership with Apple / Trailhead GO Android developed in Kotlin), community (trailblazers.salesforce.com and trailblazercommunitygroups.com), and learning (trailhead.salesforce.com). - solidify our growth strategy with product and marketing partners in the areas of experimentation, personalization, and data science. - provide product integration with other platforms such as Salesforce for a more holistic and high touch user experience. - focus on mature engineering practices such as GraphQL based API layer, internal tooling (CI/CD, CLI dev tools, quality portal, etc.), performance testing, and UI design system. While I personally launched several of these areas, I am currently indirectly supporting the majority of them through my engineering management team, and directly spearheading more strategic upcoming key product initiatives.
