Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNeal Kaviratna is an engineering manager with 11 years of experience building simulation, infrastructure, and developer-facing systems across startups and large research labs. Currently leading Monetization and Growth Infrastructure at Mixpanel, he previously helped found OtterTune where he open-sourced the preferred Ottertune Agent and built secure, VPC-native monitoring and frictionless subscription flows. At Uber ATG he led simulation engineering that scaled sensor and scenario generation for autonomy testing and temporarily managed a distributed team through reorganization. His background spans game and VR development, hardware emulation, UX design, and machine learning, giving him a multidisciplinary view of product and systems trade-offs. Neal combines hands-on engineering with people leadership—setting CI/CD, review, and remote collaboration practices—and is comfortable driving both low-level simulation tooling and high-level product plumbing. Based in Kensington, MD, he also has a track record of improving team process and culture through initiatives like tech talks, reading groups, and inclusive events.
