Summary
🎓
Top SchoolPhil Kessel is a pragmatic software engineering manager with eight years of professional experience leading full-stack teams and shipping large-scale SaaS platforms. He has driven end-to-end architecture, migrations, and testing discipline for products with tens of thousands of monthly users and successfully led an acquisition and post-acquisition consolidation. Comfortable both as an individual contributor and as an engineering leader, Phil architects complex data migrations and builds resilient systems—from nightly scraping pipelines and queued notification workflows to payments and cloud migrations.

Based in Folsom, CA, he brings entrepreneurial experience from running his own business and a practical habit of using automated data generation and performance tuning to solve real production scale problems. Outside of work he’s often in the mountains fly fishing or snowboarding with his family, which keeps his approach to trade-offs grounded and focused.
