Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAdam Howsley is a seasoned platform and observability leader who builds durable systems and teams that continue to operate smoothly when people step away. With experience leading observability at Zillow for 2,500+ engineers and managing a $9M+ vendor portfolio, he combines deep technical execution—account consolidation, tracing enablement, cost guardrails—with strategic vendor and open-source migration plans. A founder who has run a SaaS product since 2013, he blends hands-on product, infrastructure, and security ownership with people-first management that treats organizational design as an engineering problem. He has a track record of stabilizing teams after disruption, creating metrics-driven cultures, and delivering measurable cost and operational wins across Twitch, Zillow, and academic IT environments. Open to director roles, he brings candid, evidence-driven leadership and an uncommon focus on designing feedback loops and shared knowledge so good decisions become the default.
