Senior🎓
Top SchoolAdam Williams is a founding engineer with 20 years of hands-on experience building desktop, web, and mobile applications and hardening systems for startups, enterprises, banks, and government contractors from Cary, NC. He blends deep full-stack development (Java, Kotlin, TypeScript, Ruby, Elixir) with security and systems expertise—having led PCI-DSS L1 efforts, architecture and operational migrations, and data-ingestion work for security products like JupiterOne. At JupiterOne he moved between director and principal engineering roles, shaping integrations, SDKs, and scalable backend processing while also stepping in to stabilize legacy systems so teams could innovate. An active open-source contributor, he has implemented authentication tests and REST improvements in projects such as Radiant CMS, reflecting a pragmatic, test-focused approach. Colleagues know him as a technical generalist who prefers shipping durable solutions over managerial plate-spinning, and who intentionally returns to coding to solve the hardest problems.
