Summary
Aaron Silverman is an experienced engineering leader with 14 years building high-performing teams and shipping robust software across growth-stage startups and scale-ups. He blends hands-on development and architecture with executive leadership, having led engineering at companies like Storyblocks, Benefix, Team Engine and most recently held staff and management roles at Eppo and Datadog. Aaron thrives in ambiguous, high-velocity environments—tackling messy problems from the IDE to the boardroom—and has repeatedly scaled orgs and systems in product- and data-driven businesses. His background spans retail analytics, energy efficiency, health insurance tech, and SaaS experimentation, giving him a cross-domain perspective on engineering for impact. A DC transplant now based in Ouray, Colorado, he brings a practical mix of startup grit and institutional engineering discipline. Beyond management, he still enjoys shipping code and co-creating projects like Doodle or Die, reflecting a long-running maker mentality.
