Summary
Ben Lewis is a Senior Manager, DevOps based in New York with a decade of engineering experience building resilient infrastructure, data pipelines, and developer tooling across startups and large platforms like LinkedIn and Braze. He combines a practitioner’s love of correct, type-safe code and eDSLs with pragmatic automation to remove toil and tame incidental complexity in distributed systems. As a former CTO and early Keep.com engineer, he brings product-minded technical leadership and a track record of scaling mobile-first commerce and dynamic fulfillment systems. Comfortable across Haskell, TypeScript, Python, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms, he often reaches for functional techniques and type-level ideas to make systems more predictable. Outside work he’s equally likely to be found with a coffee, walking, or exploring agriculture and travel, which informs a practical, systems-thinking approach to engineering.
