Payton Staub is a Software Development Manager in Seattle with 11 years of experience building scalable ML and backend systems, currently leading teams on Amazon SageMaker. He progressed from SDE2 to manager at SageMaker, combining hands-on engineering with people leadership to ship pipeline, model-building, and deployment features at cloud scale. His background in electrical and wireless engineering and a history as a startup founder give him a systems-level view that bridges hardware-aware thinking with large-scale cloud software. Active in open source, he contributed to the widely used aws/sagemaker-python-sdk to make pipelines more flexible (processor types, parameterized TF hyperparameters, and callback steps). Known for pragmatic delivery, he pairs deep backend and MLOps expertise with experience in microservices and front-end stacks from earlier roles.
