Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolBrendan Kellam is a software engineer and two-time founder based in San Francisco with 11 years of experience building cloud and online systems. He helped scale Xbox Cloud Streaming at Microsoft after multiple internships across Project xCloud, Visual Studio and the Microsoft Garage, and earlier worked on online systems for Far Cry 5 at Ubisoft. Brendan’s startup experience spans co-founding Taqla and launching Sourcebot, demonstrating a shift from large-scale platform engineering to product-driven entrepreneurship. He brings hands-on expertise in streaming, online game infrastructure and developer tooling, and a track record of shipping production services in both enterprise and startup contexts. A McGill alumnus, he combines rigorous academic foundations with pragmatic execution and an appetite for building systems that bridge gaming, cloud, and consumer-facing products. Not obviously visible from titles alone, his career shows a steady progression from deep internship learning loops into founding roles that leverage platform-scale engineering skills.
