Mathew Spolin is an experienced technology leader and repeat founder with 14 years in senior engineering and executive roles, currently serving as SVP Engineering at AppDirect in San Francisco. He has repeatedly built and scaled product-led engineering organizations across mobile, IoT, healthcare, and enterprise SaaS, including founding Sproutling (acquired by Mattel) and co-founding DoubleDutch (acquired by Cvent). Mathew blends hands-on technical breadth—from bioinformatics and product architecture early in his career to modern connected devices—with strategic leadership that guides global engineering teams. He has a proven track record of turning hardware-software integrations and data-driven products into acquisitions and IPO-readiness. Based on a foundation in computer information systems, he pairs entrepreneurial grit with deep operational experience shipping cross-disciplinary systems at scale. A not-obvious strength is his early bioinformatics work building one of the largest private human DNA databases, which informs his data-centric approach to product engineering.
