About Kate Ulicky
I’m an engineering leader with a background in analytics and data science, focused on building scalable data systems and teams that deliver under real-world constraints.Over the past several years at iSpot, I’ve grown from senior individual contributor into people and technical leadership roles across analytics, professional services, and engineering. I’ve led teams responsible for client-facing measurement products, industry currency analytics, and large-scale data pipelines supporting TV and streaming measurement at production scale.My work tends to sit at the intersection of complex data systems (Spark, large-scale ETL, cloud data platforms), high-stakes delivery (industry standards, tentpole events, client commitments), and people leadership (mentorship, technical quality, sustainable execution).I’ve led through growth, re-orgs, and high-pressure delivery moments, and I value clarity, trust, and pragmatic problem-solving over hype.Open to roles where I can continue building strong teams and durable data platforms — whether that’s as an engineering manager or in a senior IC/tech-lead capacity.Input - Learner - Achiever - Responsibility - Relator
