In this episode, host Sheena Katz sits down with Rocio Montes — Senior Engineering Manager at GitHub — and Aliza Carpio — Senior Director of Technology Product Management at JLL — for a conversation on leadership, inclusion, and building technology that creates meaningful human impact. Drawing from their shared journey through companies like Intuit and their work advancing open source, AI, and global engineering collaboration, Rocio and Aliza reflect on what it means to lead with intention while helping others grow alongside you.

From scaling infrastructure that supports millions of developers to creating pathways for women and underrepresented communities in tech, this conversation explores how technology can serve as a bridge — connecting people across borders, opening access to opportunity, and building communities rooted in trust, mentorship, and shared progress.
