Senior🎓
Top SchoolColleen Briant is an engineering manager with 11 years of hands-on full-stack experience who now leads teams to deliver reliable, scalable finance and data platforms. She has progressed from building product-facing systems at Booking.com and Google to growing and spinning off multiple teams at Remitly, and most recently manages engineering at Rover in Seattle. Colleen emphasizes empathy, sustainable engineering practices, and career development—she’s driven promotions, revived interview training, and built hiring guilds to reduce interview load. Technically fluent across React/Next.js, Node, GraphQL, Go, Java, Python and various data stacks, she pairs pragmatic coding experience with thoughtful managerial discipline. She prefers roles that avoid adtech, crypto, and analytics-heavy positions, and is blunt about recruitment: she values recruiters who read her profile. Outside the spotlight, she’s skilled at turning messy finance processes into automated, auditable data platforms that remove spreadsheet toil.
