David Wertheimer

I've led technical teams and projects for over two decades. As a servant leader (a term I don't like but a practice that I believe is essential), I get an immense sense of accomplishment from the success of individuals and teams I work with.

I've dedicated my career to understanding how to unlock the potential of startup engineering teams with a focus on people and processes. Increasingly, this means embracing cross-functional product teams, requiring collaboration and building alignment with all areas of the company. I've mastered building high-performing teams, fostering a culture of innovation, and guiding startups through rapid growth. I've done this with a focus on using an Agile mindset as a tool to build teams, transform culture, and deliver outcomes to customers.

I've been fortunate to have had success working for several startups, and roles in diverse industries, such as SaaS, marketing technology, and e-commerce, have marked my career.

I live in Philadelphia and enjoy hiking and cooking. Recently, I have been geeking out on AI and ML.
