Top SchoolMichael Petty is a versatile technologist and educator based in San Francisco with over two decades of hands-on experience building high-traffic web products and leading engineering teams. He has driven large-scale site architecture and product roadmaps at CNET/CBS Interactive, delivering sites with millions of daily pageviews while translating technical trade-offs into business outcomes. More recently he’s combined technical tutoring and classroom instruction—shaping new developers at General Assembly and City College—alongside practical, problem-solving roles like TaskRabbit handyman work and frontline service at Bi-Rite.

Notably, his background spans the full lifecycle from early HTML and platform migrations to modern full-stack stacks (React, Node, Django) and data-driven A/B experimentation that increased revenue and SEO performance. He brings a pragmatic, hands-on approach and an educator’s knack for distilling complexity into teachable, actionable plans.
