Mike Lewis is a seasoned full-spectrum technologist with 14 years of experience building resilient systems across ML, distributed infrastructure, embedded hardware, and financial markets. He has led and shipped high-stakes platforms at Airbnb and Stripe—ranging from accounting and payments infrastructure to pricing ML systems and risk protection—often combining architecture, hands-on coding, and team building. An entrepreneur and early founder with multiple exits, he pairs product intuition with deep systems engineering skills, from C/C++ embedded firmware to Spark/Scala data pipelines. Mike contributes to open-source algorithmic trading tooling (notably enhancements to the nautilus_trader backtester) and thrives on messy, interdisciplinary problems where systems, sensors, and markets intersect. Based in the San Francisco Bay Area, he brings a rare blend of analog hardware experience (RF and chemical sensors) and applied ML for trading, risk, and payments.
