Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Desilvio is a software engineer with 11 years of experience building data-driven systems and automation across finance and retail technology. He moved from vendor and data operations roles at Bloomberg—where he combined data modeling, R/D3 visualizations, and Python microservices with global vendor management—to engineering product-focused solutions for URBN. Comfortable working with C-level stakeholders, he translates complex, disparate data sources into practical workflows and training programs that empower teams to self-serve analytics. His background in mechanical engineering and an MS in Finance gives him a rare blend of systems thinking and quantitative rigor, and he’s as at home writing microservices as he is designing dashboards and curricula. Notably, he has led large-scale vendor transitions and global rollouts, bringing operational discipline to software delivery.
