Daniel Schatzle

Engineering leader with 20 years of experience building software in regulated, high-stakes domains. Most recently, funding and payments, where my teams own the systems that move billions of dollars for consumer finance. Before that, wellness platforms, and earlier on, HIPAA-regulated health outcomes research.

I'm drawn to big problems, the ones that carry real weight. I'm most engaged when I'm down in the details with the team, shaping architecture and system design. I lead while staying hands-on with the hard parts, where the interesting decisions live. More than anything, I like building things that matter and provide real value to people, whether that's in software or out in the physical world.

Away from the keyboard I'm usually making something. 3D printing, woodworking, building Lego with my kids, tending the backyard chickens, tinkering on an old car, or cooking on the bbq.
