Satchell leads the design and development of Comcast Cable’s product portfolio as well as the engineering for X1 and mobile applications. In the past year he restructured product teams to put customers first (followed by brand and then business), delivered a next-gen Olympics experience with up to 40 simultaneous IP streams, enhanced the Xfinity video app and delivered customer experience integrations to X1. Satchell says Comcast’s commitment to diversity stems from policies established by top leadership as well as looking outside the company for guidance. “This comes right from the top: Comcast and NBCUniversal’s Internal Diversity Councils are comprised of senior executives who guide their respective business units in implementing and sustaining these policies, cross-company… In my own world at Comcast, half of the executive senior leadership team I belong to is diverse.”
