Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolShannon Romano is a seasoned engineering leader with 11+ years driving product delivery and scaling teams across games, VR, and fintech, currently serving as VP of Engineering at FlowPlay in Seattle. She has a proven track record launching multiplayer and immersive products, and has repeatedly built program management and release processes that align engineering, product, QA, and business stakeholders. Shannon blends hands-on technical understanding with clear communication to translate complex engineering trade-offs for non-technical leaders, a skill honed across startups, non-profits like the Stellar Development Foundation, and large cross-functional initiatives. She’s comfortable architecting transitions—from legacy Flash to modern JavaScript clients to cloud-backed services—and has led global engineering growth and hiring efforts. Unusually for an executive, she also has deep product-facing experience shipping on diverse platforms (mobile, VR headsets, web) which informs pragmatic technical strategy.
