Top SchoolKristen Chellis is a pragmatic software leader and Director of Data Engineering with eight years of hands-on experience building data-driven systems and products from startup to scale. Based in Portland, she moved up from software engineering roles at Clari and DealPoint.io to lead data engineering at decisio media, combining full-stack development instincts with operational ownership. She excels at solving tricky technical problems and automating workflows—evident from past projects integrating CMS, Firebase, and serverless functions to streamline content and data pipelines. Outside of engineering she brings a maker’s sensibility to her work, creating fused and stained glass art with her mother and staying active on the Portland kickball field, evidence of her collaborative, creative, and team-oriented approach. Her eclectic background—including field roles in biometric operations and seasonal winery internships across five countries—gives her uncommon operational empathy and cross-functional communication skills.
