Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMark Faga is a seasoned full-stack software engineer and technical advisor with 11 years of experience building and leading high-impact platform and product initiatives from startups to large e-commerce. He has deep expertise in Ruby on Rails, C#/.NET, SQL databases, and modern JavaScript (TypeScript, GraphQL, React) and has driven GraphQL adoption and platform strategy at Wayfair while speaking at community conferences. Mark combines hands-on engineering—shipping integrations, mobile and cross-platform apps, and data warehouse work—with technical leadership, mentoring, and cross-functional change management. He’s delivered measurable business value (including multi-million dollar platform savings and revenue-enabling projects) and has repeatedly translated executive strategy into reliable technical execution. Now advising and co-founding AI-focused ventures while holding principal engineering roles, he’s equally comfortable architecting systems and rolling up his sleeves to implement them. An unusual strength is his blend of product-minded integration work (CRM, Twilio, Salesforce) with a track record of public technical advocacy that amplifies team and company visibility.
