DENNIS GOLDFINGER / RÉSUMÉ

Engineering leadership with a builder's bias.

Product-minded engineering leader focused on applied AI, security, scalable systems, and high-trust teams. I move between strategy and implementation to turn complex transitions into durable operating systems. At both Ticket Monster and Nira, I played an integral role in driving the companies to successful seven-to-eight-figure exits.
