About Brett Russell
I’m a Director-level Technical Program Management leader with 15+ years of experience driving enterprise-scale digital transformations across cloud, fintech, healthcare, and media. I’ve led portfolios spanning 150+ engineering squads, built and scaled TPM teams, and delivered measurable results such as cutting AWS fulfillment times by 85%(65 → <9 days) and reducing Capital One platform incidents by 70% while sustaining 99.9%+ availability.My leadership style balances strategy and execution: aligning executives, product, and engineering on long-range goals while instituting governance frameworks and scalable delivery practices. I thrive on building organizations that can repeatedly deliver secure, compliant, and customer-ready systems — enabling both innovation and trust at scale.
