Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolDavid Tuite is a founder and engineering leader with 11 years’ experience building developer platforms, currently CEO and "Chief Roadie" at Roadie, a startup that makes Backstage easy to adopt for growing engineering teams. He combines hands-on software engineering (React, Node, Ruby) with product leadership from roles at Workday where he drove deployment platform adoption and introduced zero-downtime releases across large orgs. David has a track record of shipping pragmatic tooling and side projects—Shipmapp and Clamber—that keep his engineering instincts sharp while informing product decisions. He left enterprise life to tackle developer experience challenges directly, blending infrastructure product management with SaaS entrepreneurship. Based in Dublin, he brings a rare mix of platform-level vision and day-to-day implementation experience, often stepping into whatever role is needed to move projects forward.
