Senior🎓
Top SchoolBrent Scheibelhut is a Staff Software Engineer with 11 years of full-stack experience, currently leading an 8+ engineer team at Instacart where he architects AI/LLM-driven personalization and built core systems like a messaging service, RBAC, and a whitelabel analytics overhaul. He’s the named author on 100+ Instacart patents and disclosures, blending product-facing delivery with deep technical IP in AI/business integrations. Brent’s background spans startups and enterprise roles—co-founding a SaaS startup, shipping mobile and web platforms, and delivering high-traffic e-commerce sites for clients—so he moves comfortably between prototype velocity and production-grade reliability. He mentors teams, drives cross-functional alignment with marketing and CS, and has a history of reducing spam and cancellation rates through pragmatic, rule-based systems. Outside work he’s an endurance athlete and longtime swim coach who brings the same discipline to engineering and team culture. He’s also fond of alliteration and science fiction, a hint of the creative thinking he applies to technical problems.
