Top SchoolJohnie Lee is a fintech-focused engineering leader with 14+ years building payments and trading systems across Wall Street, Google, Uber, and startups. He combines deep payments technical expertise—evidenced by multiple payment patents and founding-engineer roles on Google Wallet initiatives—with a proven ability to scale global consumer financial products such as Uber Cash, driver debit cards, and card issuance platforms across 30+ countries. Currently leading Privacy.com’s engineering organization, he has repeatedly bridged product, risk, and platform teams to deliver card issuance, transaction processing, and ledger systems at scale.
