I’m Mike Miles, a technical leader, speaker, and longtime open-source practitioner focused on web modernization, digital governance, performance improvement, and responsible AI adoption.

I serve as the Director of Web Development at MIT Sloan School of Management, where I lead the development, maintenance, and growth of the school’s public digital properties, along with the team that supports them.

I’m especially interested in how content-heavy organizations can build web platforms that are faster, easier to govern, and better prepared to serve as trusted sources of truth in the AI era.

What I focus on

• Web modernization and digital platform strategy
• Technical leadership and team growth
• Drupal sustainability and long-term maintainability
• Performance and trustworthy user experience
• Delivery quality and team workflow improvements
• Practical, responsible use of AI in web teams
