Summary
Michelle Lee is a customer-focused cloud engineer with 13 years of experience helping startups scale using Google Cloud, now leading growth efforts from Austin, Texas. At Google she progressed from Cloud Technical Resident to team lead and currently serves as Customer Engineer for Startups Growth, combining technical depth with go-to-market experience. Her background in Management Information Systems and a Computer Science certificate from McCombs, plus time studying EU business law in Edinburgh, gives her a rare mix of technical, legal and business perspectives. Michelle has moved between hands-on roles (coding instructor, SWE/project manager) and client-facing positions, which helps her translate engineering constraints into pragmatic product and growth strategies. She’s energized by early-stage founders and known for turning cloud capabilities into measurable traction rather than abstract architectures. Outside work she runs community-focused activities that keep her close to the startup ecosystem and founder needs.
