Engineering Leadership at OpenMined

OpenMined is an open-source software development community attempting to solve the problem of privacy, security, and sovereignty of data ownership in the modern world. I was one of the founding team members of OpenMined, helping to grow the community from 0 to over 14,000 community members. In addition to being a contributor, I was promoted to lead the Federated Learning team and eventually the Engineering team for the entire organization.

I was eventually promoted to lead the entire Engineering team, which included a total headcount of over 80 fully-remote data scientists, developers, and cryptographers working on over 10+ libraries. During this time, I wrote of numerous software development grants that were presented, approved, and funded by Google, Microsoft, Twitter, and the University of California.
