Mike Marian — CTO

I’ve spent the last 20+ years building products, companies, and technology that solve real problems, not just look good on paper. Today: • I am the CTO & Co-Founder of UpLead, a top-ranked B2B data platform used by thousands of sales teams worldwide. • I invented Email Verification-as-a-Service, technology that has verified over 7.2 billion emails (and counting) in real time. • I lead the technical vision that has helped UpLead become G2’s #1 Lead Intelligence Platform. I have been a serial entrepreneur, bootstrapping multiple ventures from the ground up. My focus has always been on creating tools that work at scale, stay reliable under pressure, and actually make users more successful. At UpLead, I have: • Designed and scaled systems that process millions of data points daily. • Built an email verification engine that keeps our customers’ outreach out of spam and in the inbox. • Led a remote engineering team that ships fast without compromising quality. What I share: • The engineering principles and product frameworks that keep SaaS platforms running at scale. • How to turn complex data challenges into simple, usable solutions. • Lessons from 20+ years of building and leading technical teams in B2B SaaS. If you are scaling a SaaS, tackling data quality issues, or are interested in building reliable, high-performance tech, I'd love to connect with you here.
