Summary
👤
SeniorKirk Gordon is an engineering leader with 12 years of experience architecting cloud-native systems optimized for resiliency, zero-trust security, observability, high throughput and low-latency performance. He has led and built high-scale routing and automation subsystems at Kustomer and Meta, owning next-generation skills-based routing for services that handle large RPS and strict availability targets. Kirk blends hands-on principal-engineer craftsmanship with tech leadership across startups and large media companies, from video engineering at The New York Times to platform work at Pager and anti-fraud systems at Forensiq. Based in New York, he favors pragmatic, production-first designs that prioritize operability and measurable SLAs. Less obvious: his background spans immersive real-time applications and content distribution early in his career, giving him a strong intuition for latency-sensitive, real-time architectures.
