Alan Graham is a Chief Architect and seasoned software leader with 12 years of experience designing and shipping large-scale C++, Java, and Ruby on Rails systems. He combines deep distributed-systems expertise—shared memory, TCP/UDP IPC in Unix environments—with practical product leadership across startups and enterprise teams. Currently steering architecture at Phamily while overseeing engineering for Ignitio's analytics platform and directing product development at Product Lab, he bridges low-level performance engineering with modern web stacks and MongoDB-backed storage for high-volume sites. An avid Git user with ClearCase heritage and an MS in Computer Science from Johns Hopkins, he brings a rare mix of systems-level rigor and product-focused delivery. Notably, his background includes hands-on roles at APL and as a patent examiner, reflecting both technical depth and a methodical, IP-aware approach to engineering.
