Patrick Way is a seasoned software engineering manager with 19 years of experience leading cross-functional teams to deliver scalable, accessible, and user-focused web platforms. Based in New York, he currently leads engineering at StreetEasy where he drove React adoption to 95% of frontend work, created an accessible design system, and implemented WCAG 2.1 AA compliance alongside monitoring for lead time and accessibility metrics. He has a strong operational track record building fleet and device management systems that increased uptime from 89% to 98% and consolidating services into trunk-based continuous delivery pipelines. Patrick blends hands-on engineering (React, Python, Scala, AWS) with product-minded leadership—coaching teams, defining MVPs, and partnering with stakeholders to ship measurable outcomes. He’s comfortable scaling both customer-facing UX and complex backend integrations, and has a curious, interdisciplinary background with a BS in Studio Art that informs his emphasis on usable design. Not obvious from titles alone: he repeatedly turns fragmented systems into streamlined, observable platforms that reduce toil and accelerate delivery.
