I’m a senior engineering leader with experience at Microsoft, Meta, Snap, and SoFi, leading organizations across distributed systems, cloud infrastructure, data platforms, payments, AI, and consumer products at massive scale.
Over the past 15+ years, I’ve built and grown high-performing engineering teams, led large cross-functional initiatives, scaled organizations, and shipped products serving hundreds of millions of users. My experience spans engineering leadership, system architecture, product strategy, organizational design, hiring, operational excellence, and career development.
I enjoy mentoring engineers and managers on:
- Team management and leadership growth
- Career progression
- System design and architecture
- Team scaling and execution
- Interview preparation
- Navigating big tech environments
- Communication and stakeholder management
My mentoring style is practical, honest, and execution-focused. I aim to help mentees build confidence, sharpen leadership skills, and accelerate career growth through actionable guidance and real-world experience.
5 out of 5 stars
I highly recommend Ethan as a mentor for Engineering Managers. He has a lot of experience interviewing Engineering Managers and really understands what hiring managers look for. He helped me better structure my stories, focus on the right details, and understand what is worth saying and what is better to leave out. His feedback is practical, honest, and clearly based on real experience. I found our sessions very valuable and would definitely recommend him to anyone preparing for Engineering Manager interviews.
