Selene Xenia is a Senior Engineering Manager based in Seattle with 11 years of experience leading teams and building resilient, large-scale systems across companies including Amazon, Dropbox, Afresh, and Nava. She combines deep backend and operations experience—managing datacenter failover and high-scale services—with a hands-on maker's mindset cultivated through mechanical clock repair, model building, and home remodeling. Known for coaching and developing engineers, she emphasizes practical learning from community and industry mentors rather than lone “self-teaching.” Her career spans startup and enterprise contexts, delivering product-facing web applications and critical infrastructure for consumer-facing platforms. Outside of work she brings unusual cross-disciplinary craft skills into engineering problem solving, translating physical repair diagnostics into systems thinking and observability.
