Summary
Eric Wyler is an engineering manager with a decade of experience building and leading software teams from startup to scale, currently driving Linux kernel-related work at Meta. He combines hands-on engineering instincts with people-first leadership—having built a remote office, managed managers, coached underperformers, and navigated promotions and layoffs—while emphasizing ownership, honest feedback, and clear communication. Previously he led architecture and engineering across roles at Indigo, CarGurus, and Amazon, and founded a small startup, Timesilk, demonstrating both strategic and entrepreneurial chops. Eric favors a metrics-light approach: a few meaningful measures tailored to the problem space to guide consistent delivery. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area and trained in biomedical and systems engineering at RPI, he brings technical depth coupled with pragmatic product focus.
