Top SchoolAdam Dispenza is a senior engineering leader with 12 years of experience building and operating high-throughput payments systems at Expedia Group (formerly HomeAway/Vrbo).

Known for pragmatic observability and "Adam's Runbook" operational playbooks, he excels at unblocking complex programs and keeping systems operable at 2 a.m. while guiding teams through rapid growth and multiple restructurings. Based in Austin, he brings a practical blend of system design, domain-driven architecture, and people-first leadership to payments engineering.
