Top SchoolMike Fink is a Software Engineering Manager in the San Francisco Bay Area with 11 years of engineering experience building reliable, high-throughput network management and telemetry systems at Arista Networks.

Mike emphasizes quality through rigorous testing in Go and Python and brings practical experience across C++, hardware-level programming, build infrastructure, and network protocols. His unusual background as a patent and trademark lawyer sharpens his concise communication and cross-team collaboration, helping him onboard quickly and clarify complex requirements.
