Profile: https://flows.cv/eliasramirez

6+ years of Engineering experience in building scalable, reliable and robust backend/product systems and platforms. 

In the last two years, I’ve been a Tech Lead on the Delivery team where I've built up a team from the ground up, worked with BD/Product to create an extensive engineering roadmap, instilled an inclusive and efficient engineering environment/culture, lead and implemented impactful projects and mentored several engineers/interns in the process.

Prior to that I was on the Core Services team where I worked with several amazing engineers to build out, maintain, and improve some of the most critical services/platforms/api's in our Lyft ecosystem.
