Top SchoolScott Wainstock is a pragmatic software development manager with 15+ years of experience leading cross-functional teams to deliver large-scale products, currently managing the team behind AWS Route 53 Application Recovery Controller.

Scott has built and scaled international teams, helped launch revenue-driving analytics tools, and served as a founding CSIRT responder, reflecting both product and security acumen. Based in Portland, he values collaboration and finishing projects in his spare time; his GitHub showcases practical side projects that mirror his preference for shipping usable solutions.
