Brandon Richey is a seasoned engineering leader with over 16 years of experience delivering web and software products across e-commerce, healthcare, and HR, currently serving as VP of Engineering in New York. He has scaled teams and taken multiple products to market, previously serving as CTO of Refersion and SVP of Engineering at Helium10 under Pacvue where he led cross-functional organizations to ship four major releases in rapid succession. Known for servant leadership, Brandon balances operational rigor—KPIs, on-time delivery, and budgetary discipline—with a strong emphasis on mentoring managers and maintaining high employee engagement. His background spans hands-on development to executive strategy, and he’s repeatedly built platforms and professional services capabilities that bridge product, sales, and engineering. Unusually for an exec, he also has academic teaching experience, having lectured computer science early in his career, which informs his focus on growing engineers into leaders.
