Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Chiles is a veteran technology entrepreneur and operator with 11+ years of hands-on experience building and investing in web, security, and SaaS businesses. As Co-Founder and CEO of eLink Design and head of its venture arm, he has grown a 40-person agency serving nearly 1,000 clients while spinning up and scaling investments including PhishingBox and AuditFindings. He blends product-focused engineering (including backend contributions to security tooling for domain reputation and phishing research) with strategic roles in finance, marketing, and data center operations. Comfortable across technical development, SEO-driven digital marketing, and venture finance, he routinely moves between code, go-to-market execution, and investor-facing work. One less obvious strength: he repeatedly converts agency capabilities into ownership stakes and ventures, turning operational expertise into recurring revenue and equity outcomes.
