Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolPete Barnett is a product leader and former software engineer who has rapidly progressed to Director of Product at InfluxData, focusing on InfluxDB 3. He blends hands-on engineering experience from Boeing and early research work at Clemson with MBA training to bridge technical and business priorities. Pete has co-founded a startup (Sesame) and led product teams at Northspyre, bringing a mix of startup grit and enterprise discipline to data infrastructure and developer-facing products. Based in South Carolina, he is comfortable navigating both technical roadmaps and go-to-market strategy, with a knack for translating low-level engineering constraints into customer-facing features. A quiet differentiator: his background includes wearable device research and password security work, giving him an uncommon lens on user-facing security and embedded systems.
