Top SchoolSean Xie is a seasoned software leader and founder with 13 years of experience building product-driven engineering organizations in the San Francisco Bay Area. Currently co-founding Ohm Labs after leading product and engineering at Front—where he focused on dashboards, data understanding, and shipping TypeScript-to-Kubernetes flows—he blends hands-on coding with strategic product leadership. His background spans backend systems in Python, Java, and Scala at TellApart (acquired by Twitter) and full-stack work in Ruby and JavaScript earlier in his career.
