Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMatt Insler is a seasoned engineering leader with 16 years building scalable web and distributed systems, currently serving as Head of Product Engineering at Unreasonable Labs after senior engineering stints at Y Combinator, Alchemy, Uniswap Labs, and Airbnb. He pairs hands-on full‑stack execution—from C/C++ and Java backends to React frontends—with a proven track record of leading teams through platform migrations, microservices adoption, and large feature launches. Matt has founded and scaled startups (Awesometalk, Y Combinator W14) and led engineering through acquisitions, demonstrating both product intuition and operational rigor. He’s comfortable operating at the intersection of product, design, and engineering, having driven cross-company frontend standards and led multi-team initiatives at Dropbox and PageLever. A practical systems thinker, he’s equally at ease optimizing databases and worker fleets as he is mentoring teams and instituting processes that improve delivery and reduce miscommunication.
