Emil Sit

Hello! I lead organizations to deliver outsized impact, and coach individuals, managers and teams to incrementally expand and improve their capabilities. I'd love to help you grow your own capabilities and impact.

I'll bring a strong technical grounding to our sessions, using my experience doing academic work in distributed systems and my time in industry writing production code for enterprise and SaaS businesses. My personal experience as a yoga student and teacher and as a pianist informs my mentoring and management approach: we'll balance technical and people needs, and developing consistent practices and systems that lead to improvement over time.

As a leader at Toast, I helped shape the engineering organization's growth from ~30 engineers in 2016 to over 1000 in 2024, including helping many people get promoted all the way up to the Director level. At HubSpot and other companies, I wrote or reviewed code for everything from REST APIs to Chrome Extensions, from Kafka consumers to Outlook plugins.
