Where do I start. Andrew's impact has been felt at all levels of our team and he is as gifted and well seasoned of any engineer that I have ever seen and witnessed firsthand. He flourishes in ambiguity. He excels in the unknown. He leads when others are not watching, and he priorities and commands engineering excellence through his intentional actions of continuous improvement with a strong affinity for effectively establishing unique and collaborative mechanisms. His front end ability is unmatched, but more than that, he has continuously elevated the engineers around him to think and breath through a value driven lens of quality. This is what sets Andrew apart. Andrew is the principal, distinguished, staff engineer that could help lead any team to new heights and achievements. Andrew's selfless and humble approach to growth and improvement is one that I respect so much given his tenure in the industry. He's a leader that isn't afraid to take feedback. He simply receives and gives back a continuously improved version of himself. Hire the man!!
