Hello I'm Jordan, I have 15+ years of experience with full stack software development, and leading technical teams. I've been CTO a few times, worked in/for startups, consulted for fortune 500s, and worked on public sector modernization projects.
What I am good at:
- DevOps
- Building teams that get things done. I love getting to the point where product owners (voluntarily) say "how about you guys in engineering do whatever you think is best, because we need some time to think about these features requests before we know what more to build"
What I'm interested in:
- DevOps/DevEx improvements,
- Improvements to containerization, eBPF, MicroVMs, Linux internals
- I like smaller (< 50 person) companies of all kinds
I am flexible in regards full time, part time, contract, occasional consulting.

A multi-server process supervisor. Existing init processes (systemd, runit, s6, etc) work great on a single server but when you need to manage/deploy many servers, the tooling gets really complicated (K8s). Phoenix extends the process supervision model from one server, to many. Run this thing once / keep one copy of this around / keep this running on all machines that match pattern X etc.
Turns out the (obvious in hindsight?) problem is automated but simple networking. Currently digging deep into wireguard based overlay networking before rolling the next version of Phoenix out.
I solve business problems, usually software engineering is involved. Multiple stints as a CTO, multiple startups, experience with enterprise and public sector work, decades of engineering work, etc.
I help companies scale. I write high-performance backend systems, simplify ops & implement MVPs. I am looking for project based work, and prefer a flat fee.
If you have a technical problem you would like solved, hit me up. No fee for listening and helping you build a plan to solve it, reasonable fees for implementing the plan for you.
