United States
Summary
🎓
Top SchoolLea Akkari is a Technical Program Manager with eight years of experience building customer-first features for Azure Core at Microsoft, blending program leadership with hands-on software and data skills. She drives cross-team delivery using agile and data-driven approaches, and has progressed from PM intern to TPM2 while retaining an engineer’s mindset. Her background in electrical engineering and AI research—plus a stint as an AI engineer at a startup—gives her fluency in both hardware-adjacent systems and machine learning workflows.

Currently augmenting her technical leadership with business and marketing studies at McGill, she brings a rare mix of cloud program execution, engineering depth, and cross-cultural perspective.
