Nate Lyman is a seasoned CTO with 15+ years building high-throughput marketplaces, creator platforms, and commerce systems that become strategic business advantages. He combines hands-on technical depth—from mobile (iOS/React Native) and distributed backend systems to modern vector DBs and LLM/RAG stacks—with product leadership that drives conversion, monetization, and operational scale. At Songfinch he rebuilt collaboration flows, launched video and AI-driven creative tooling, and stood up a marketing data lake to measurably increase engagement and revenue; earlier roles at Fanatics and eBay reflect repeated success integrating acquisitions and launching platform-level capabilities. Nate is energized by ambitious missions where technology is core, and he prioritizes clarity, speed, and team agency to unlock long-term leverage. He holds 14 issued patents across mobile and commerce, and routinely blends emerging ML/voice tech with human-centered creative workflows.
