About Gil Amsellem

I make the hard stuff work — at scale — where failure is not an option.For the past 15 years, I’ve been deep in the trenches of digital identity, authentication, cybersecurity, fraud prevention, and large-scale platform delivery. I don’t just “manage” products — I own them, drive them, and obsess over getting them into the hands of millions of users with flawless execution.At Charles Schwab, I lead the authentication stack that protects millions of client logins every single day — across web, mobile, desktop, and call center channels. From designing modern MFA and passwordless flows, to executing massive platform migrations (zero downtime), to driving resiliency features that keep customers logging in even when things break — this is the world I live in.I believe great product leadership is about sweat, details, and trust: with your engineers, with your partners, and with your customers. My reputation? Master of execution. Call me when the project is too big, too complex, too mission-critical to fail.
