Michael Rubin

Project Manager, Photographer, and Web Developer in San Francisco, California

Currently working as Principal Program Manager on the Experimentation and Configuration Services team at Skype. My focus is to manage the team that enables capabilities for clients and services within the organization to easily manage experimentation and feature rollouts in production, at scale, and use data driven analysis for decision making.

Previously, I technically managed major accounts for Healthline Networks, Inc., a healthcare start-up that has served over a billion pages of health information to over 100 million customers. My role also includes lateral responsibility into development, ensuring delivery of the company's most important, large-scale technical projects.

Before that, I had been part of the founding team of several Silicon Valley technologies companies, including MessageCast, sold to Microsoft (NASD: MSFT) in 2005 and iPrint.com (taken public in 2000 and merged with 12th largest promotional products company in U.S. in 2001). More recently, co-founded BaconMarathon Labs, a start-up that uses social networking to keep people in touch with their obsessions. And at Microsoft, was the senior point person coordinating development activities for the company's major clients, including Fox Sports, MSNBC, eBay, and Match.com.

I graduated from Drexel University with a BS in Information Systems and consider myself an avid coffee drinking, food loving, traveling social media enthusiast.
