Nick Saldivar is an engineering manager with 12 years of experience blending hands-on software engineering and technical leadership across startups and enterprise teams. He has led backend-focused teams and product roadmaps at companies like BigCommerce and MINDBODY while earlier engineering roles spanned SaaS platform work, trading-systems development, and even satellite mechanical design—evidence of his comfort diving into unfamiliar domains. A practitioner of servant leadership, he pairs pragmatic process improvements (SDLC, Scrum) with mentorship and cross-functional collaboration to drive delivery and technical direction. He’s comfortable building production systems that handle real-time data and high throughput, and has a history of improving developer workflows and automations from mobile build pipelines to simulation engines. Based in Ashburn, VA, Nick brings a curious, detail-oriented approach informed by an aerospace background and a track record of translating complex requirements into reliable, scalable products.
