Hudson Piehl
Sr Data Analyst / Software development manager @Acutely
Verified
I specialize in managing offshore and distributed development teams for US companies — bringing 20+ years of technical leadership across gaming, hospitality tech, and data platforms. My edge is bridging the gap between US product goals and offshore execution: I’ve led teams in Argentina, India, and France, and know how to build the communication cadence, agile structure, and accountability systems that make remote delivery work reliably. Most recently as Head of Engineering at F&B Insights, I led an Argentina-based team to build a hospitality data marketplace — using AI and automation to transform POS data into actionable intelligence. At Acutely, I lead a data analytics team helping major restaurant chains make confident real estate expansion decisions. My foundation is in software engineering — I started as a programmer and grew into leading 55-person teams on shipped console titles including Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers and Ghostbusters. That origin gives me credibility with dev teams that a pure manager rarely has.More...
