Summary

Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaul Robinson is a seasoned software engineering leader with 13 years of senior management experience and a 25+ year engineering background, currently serving as VP of Software Engineering in the San Francisco Bay Area. He specializes in building mobile teams and architectures from the ground up—taking iOS and cross-platform apps from zero to scale while keeping systems modular, stable, and easy to evolve. At Coursera he shipped the original iOS app, led the mobile migration to Swift/Kotlin, and grew the mobile org rapidly; at Life360 he ran engineering for location services and systems at scale. Paul blends deep hands-on roots in networking and trading systems with pragmatic product focus, favoring separations of concern that enable fast iteration without jeopardizing reliability. He’s known for hiring and developing engineering leaders, introducing program-level rigor (TPMs and predictable release cadences), and translating complex, real-time requirements into maintainable mobile architectures. Outside the obvious, his career shows a pattern of moving legacy, high-throughput systems into modular, cross-platform architectures that accelerate future feature development.
