Summary
Brian Brunner is a founder and seasoned software leader with 11 years of experience building data-heavy products and risk infrastructure, currently based in Austin. He led engineering teams at Stripe focused on Sigma, Data Pipeline, and Risk Policy Engineering, shipping a self-serve Data Pipeline ahead of schedule and driving 2x revenue growth while cutting fraud over 50% in key markets. Brian combines hands-on product and engineering instincts from roles as a founder and early-stage operator (Cheddar Card, Snackr) with deep experience in large-scale data systems and real-time analytics. He has repeatedly scaled small teams into high-performing groups, guiding multiple promotions to senior and staff levels. Equally comfortable in product, backend systems, and distributed data plumbing, he now builds infrastructure and automation to help financial-crime teams protect the digital economy. A Stanford HCI-trained engineer, he brings a user-centered sensibility to complex backend and risk problems.
