Preethi Baskaran is an Engineering Manager based in the San Francisco Bay Area with 11 years of experience building and leading teams that deliver scalable web applications and production systems. She has progressed from hands-on Java and Ruby on Rails development to managing fraud prevention, search optimization, and integration-focused teams at Uber Freight and now Rippling, blending technical depth with product-minded strategy. Her background includes designing rule-based engines, predictive risk integrations, and subscription-based product features that improved operational scalability and search performance. A Carnegie Mellon software engineering MS graduate, she pairs agile and TDD discipline with mentor experience from internships to cross-functional initiatives. Notably, she’s equally comfortable diving into low-level performance work—like Elasticsearch tuning and vehicle scheduling algorithms—as she is shaping roadmap and metrics for fraud and product teams.
