Summary
Kelly Altom is a Technical Program Manager with over a decade of experience orchestrating complex software and hardware initiatives across Microsoft, Meta, Boeing, startups, and healthcare ventures. She has repeatedly bridged research and product delivery—running scaled Agile for mixed teams of software engineers and scientists on Azure Quantum and launching global AI/ML translation services with compliance across SOC, ISO, HIPAA, FedRAMP, and PCI. Kelly combines hands-on product design (APIs, iOS apps, REST/OpenAPI specs) with operational leadership, having stood up Xbox Live datacenters worldwide and founded two startups that shipped clinician and consumer-facing products. Comfortable in both cloud-native (AWS/Azure) and edge data center contexts, she’s known for turning cross-disciplinary requirements into auditable, production-ready systems. An uncommon strength is her track record managing international partner ecosystems while owning security, privacy, and compliance for AI-powered services.
