An engineering manager's take on measuring performance of individuals
Vaz is an engineering manager for the Pages product at LinkedIn, where he helps organizations establish their presence and connect with professionals at a global scale. In this episode, we discuss Vaz's journey as a software engineer into leadership positions, and I get a great new perspective on performance management of individuals.
Vaz has over 15 years of experience as an engineering manager in places like Stripe, Google and his own company. In his ten years at Google, Vaz held many externally facing engineering roles, both as an individual contributor and manager for different teams across the Americas region both in their Ads business and at Google Cloud.
Prior to Google he was the co-founder and CTO of a company that develops software and provides infrastructure for financial institutions and security agencies.
Since 2013 he has been based out of the San Francisco Bay area after relocating from Mexico where he is originally from. Outside of work he enjoys playing with his 4yr old son, biking, watching movies with his wife and consuming any post-apocalyptic media that is produced.
He holds a Computer Science degree from U.N.A.M. where he also helped others get theirs working there as a Professor and Developer.
