Summary
Patrice Dougé is a Senior Software Engineer with 8 years of experience building and optimizing large-scale distributed systems and end-to-end full-stack experiences, now focused on applying LLMs to real product problems. At Mailchimp/Intuit he led Natural Language Segment Builder and marketing content generation efforts that spanned multiple teams, drove an RPC-based GenAI API architecture, and helped hit early revenue milestones for AI-powered features. He has delivered high-throughput data pipelines (hundreds of thousands of messages per minute), improved consumer latency SLAs, and shipped features that directly improved customer personalization and revenue. Based in Sarasota, FL and currently at Wistia, Patrice combines systems-level engineering with product-minded prompt engineering and pragmatic tooling—like realistic dev database seeding—to accelerate GenAI feature development. Notably, he moves comfortably between infrastructure, model evaluation, and front-end UX to turn ambiguous, cross-functional problems into measurable business outcomes.
