Anthony Suarez is a seasoned engineering leader with over a decade of experience building cloud-native platforms and developer tools at scale, currently leading Engineering Acceleration at Pinterest to remove friction for engineers and ship reliable AI-enabled developer experiences. He has a deep track record from founding core container services at AWS (ECS, Fargate, ECR) to scaling Code.org’s engineering and product teams to support 100M students, combining low-level infrastructure expertise with product-driven platform thinking. As a founder and mentor, he co-created communities and startups that fund and advise female founders and built HerHoops.org to apply analytics and ML to advance women’s basketball, a less-obvious blend of sports advocacy and data science. Anthony is skilled at translating developer experience metrics into concrete platform investments—owning monorepos, CI/CD, agent runtimes, and observability—to make production-safe deployments routine. He pairs business-facing GM experience with hands-on technical leadership, having led 100-person teams and global datacenter operations. Based in Seattle, he focuses on simplicity, sustainability, and cultivating future leaders who can ship impactful, user-centered systems.
