Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGall Steinitz is a Staff Engineer in San Francisco with 17 years of experience building reliable, developer-focused systems across Ruby on Rails, observability tooling, and ML-augmented platforms. At DataGrail he led the development of a privacy-risk detection platform that blends LLMs, traditional machine learning, and human review, while championing CI/CD and instrumentation culture. Previously he helped modernize observability at Shopify and drove large-scale decomposition and product launches at Stitch Fix, demonstrating a knack for turning monoliths into measurable, service-oriented platforms. A pragmatic engineering leader, he emphasizes outcome-driven collaboration and developer enablement, often evangelizing best practices rather than dogma. He contributes to the VCR open-source gem and brings a rare mix of hands-on engineering, product sensitivity, and experience scaling systems for peak traffic. Gall’s background—from military-grade database optimization to consumer-facing product launches—gives him both deep technical rigor and an instinct for user-centered design.
