Chris Metcalf is an experienced engineering leader with 17 years building and scaling data-driven platforms, currently managing Integrations at Binti after helping Amperity grow from a 50-person startup to a $1B unicorn. He blends deep technical chops in large-scale data pipelines, AI-driven customer identity, and Spark-based processing with hands-on operational leadership—driving reliability improvements that increased workflow success to 99.5% and cut repetitive ops time by half. Chris has repeatedly built and scaled cross-functional teams, growing support and solutions organizations while mentoring engineers into product and engineering roles. His background includes steering product and developer programs at Socrata through rapid growth and acquisition, and delivering high-profile civic and enterprise implementations. He’s comfortable moving between product, engineering, and customer-facing roles, and is known for turning operational pain points into product improvements and self-serve customer features. Outside the obvious, he favors breadth over narrow specialization—a philosophy reflected in careers spanning engineering, product, developer evangelism, and operations.
