David Phipps

I'm the director of engineering at OpenTable. I grew up in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Since then, l've lived in San Francisco. I'm into my family, technology, code, travel, languages (I speak Spanish), ancient world history, insanely obscure music, and swimming.

In addition to OpenTable, I'm involved in several local startups as an advisor, including Quizlet.com.
Prior, I founded or was an early employee at Zing.com (photo hosting), Quios (SMS messaging), ZeroG (installers) and Plumtree (enterprise portals). I've also worked at more recognized companies such as Borland, BEA, and Autodesk.

I'm married to Dr. Patricia Sheppard, a gifted chiropractor, kinesiologist, nutritionist and neurologist; read more at angelchiro.com.
