David Pearson is a systems-minded program leader with 15+ years driving enterprise program and product delivery across Microsoft, media, retail, and cloud platforms. He specializes in connecting product, engineering, and compliance—guiding SRE, privacy, and platform transformations while keeping audits and regulated controls like SOX and SOC II practical and actionable. Known for aligning stakeholders and quietly removing blockers, he blends technical planning with change management to help high-trust teams move fast without sacrificing integrity. His background ranges from hands-on release and network engineering at Microsoft to building privacy and consent platforms for Sinclair Broadcast Group and advising startups through SOC audits. A Certified Scrum Master and CISSP, he’s equally comfortable in boardroom strategy and day-to-day delivery cadence. Based in Bothell, WA, he’s open to senior program/product roles, fractional leadership, or project-based consulting focused on privacy-led product and platform transformation.
