Marc Bollinger is a seasoned engineering leader with 15 years of experience building platform, infrastructure, and data teams, currently serving as Director of Engineering at Thumbtack in San Francisco. He has a strong track record of driving multicloud strategy, migrating legacy stacks to Kubernetes and Snowflake, and reducing cloud spend through architecture and operational changes. Marc excels at scaling teams and systems—doubling infrastructure capacity to reduce on-call load while preserving data throughput—and has led large ETL and data-warehouse modernizations. He blends hands-on technical judgment with people leadership, mentoring cross-discipline engineers and promoting service-oriented decomposition of monoliths. Outside work he signals an offbeat cultural mix—black metal and black coffee—that hints at a disciplined, focused approach to problem solving. He holds an MS in Computer Science from Lehigh and has roots in building data systems back to early Hadoop and Redshift migrations.
