Jason Fennell

Board Member at Harvey Mudd College

Joining Yelp in 2008, he became an engineering leader and assumed responsibility for search in 2010. After focusing on the growth of the search team for several years, he took over responsibility for advertising, data infrastructure, and partnerships as well as other algorithmically focused teams. Since Fennell joined, Yelp has grown from 6M to over 100M reviews and scaled its daily traffic volume and revenue similarly.

In addition to his technical oversight, he has also been a strategic driver for engineering recruiting and international office expansion.

Fennell earned a BS in computer science and math from Harvey Mudd College. He and his wife Lilly currently live in San Francisco.
