Evan Seaward is a hands-on software engineering manager with 11 years of experience leading web and mobile teams to deliver durable, user-facing products at scale. Currently at airSlate (and with recent leadership at Handsontable), he focuses on raising engineering standards, aligning architecture with product strategy, and scaling organisations without adding unnecessary process. He blends deep frontend expertise—contributions to the well-known Handsontable project improving demos, accessibility and docs—with pragmatic technical leadership and a history of shipping in constrained, high-reliability environments like in-flight systems. Evan coaches senior engineers, drives cross-team execution, and prioritises long-term technical health alongside short-term delivery. Based in Wrocław, originally from Australia, he now builds AI-first applications and brings a product-minded engineer’s lens to managerial decisions. Colleagues know him for turning complex technical trade-offs into clear, practical plans that keep teams moving.
