Career

Reactivity

Lilly co-founded[5] and served the CTO for Reactivity,[6] a start-up focused on consulting on technically difficult websites and incubating new companies.[6] Cisco Systems bought Reactivity in 2007 for $135 million.[7]

Mozilla

Lilly was the chief executive officer of the Mozilla Corporation from 2008 to 2010.[8] The corporation, a subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation, coordinates development of open-source Mozilla Internet applications, including the Firefox web browser. Lilly, previously Mozilla's chief operating officer, succeeded Mitchell Baker as CEO in January 2008.[9]

In May 2010, Lilly announced he would step down as CEO.[9] Lilly was succeeded by Gary Kovacs on November 8, 2010.[10] Lilly left Mozilla's board of directors in March 2014, reportedly over the appointment of Brendan Eich as CEO.[11]

Venture capital

Lilly joined the venture capital firm Greylock Partners as a partner in 2011. His investments include Instagram,[12] Dropbox,[12] Tumblr,[12] Quip,[13] and MessageMe.[14] Lilly left the firm in January 2019 to dedicate himself more to activism, explaining "it’s crystal clear that 2019 & 2020 are crucially important years — certainly the most important time in a generation, but maybe much longer than that."[15]
