Top SchoolClo Lowenthal is a Principal Engineer with 12+ years building and operating cloud-native web services and platform tooling, primarily on AWS using Go, JavaScript/Node.js, Python and PHP. They excel at leading teams through architectural change—bootstrapping agile scrum processes, driving cost and reliability improvements at scale (notably for high‑traffic game launches), and simplifying alerting and observability to reduce noise and improve signal. Clo pairs systems-level thinking with hands-on work, from low-level C++/Lua game engine features to building integrations between Ruby, JS, and native apps. They have shepherded product pivots toward open source, created community strategy and release automation, and led audits and documentation for large government programs, demonstrating both technical depth and governance rigor. Based in Rockville, MD, Clo is comfortable in both startup and enterprise contexts and is known for tackling the non-obvious infrastructure and process challenges that unlock reliable delivery.
