Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolBen Riggleman is a results-driven VP of Engineering and cloud architect with 15+ years of experience designing and delivering large-scale, cloud-native systems and multimillion-dollar projects. Based in Ann Arbor, he has repeatedly scaled engineering organizations (1200% growth at AdAdapted) while maintaining industry-leading retention and slashing infrastructure costs through platform migrations and optimization. His hands-on background spans microservices, real-time OLTP/OLAP reporting, BigQuery/Looker migrations, Kafka-driven analytics, and CI/CD automation across multi-cloud environments. A pragmatic leader and mentor, he builds small high-impact teams (built a Data Analytics team from scratch) and translates complex datasets into client-facing storytelling. Less obvious: his career blends enterprise consulting and boots-on-the-ground implementation, from automating vehicle data pipelines for partners like Lyft and BMW to delivering one of ADP’s earliest $1M+ cloud contracts.
