Andrew Copp is a pragmatic software leader and product executive with 11 years of experience building scalable, production-grade systems across startups and cloud platforms. Currently VP of B2B Products at Metrc, he previously co-founded Prelude where he shipped an MVP in three months, scaled a data platform to 100K+ API calls/day, and raised venture funding while hiring and leading engineering teams. His hands-on background spans iOS, backend, data engineering, and CI/CD—having reduced mobile crash rates from double digits to <0.1% and cut server costs by two-thirds through language and architecture choices. He combines product intuition (20+ wireframes and customer interviews) with operational discipline (incident response that unlocked $2M in receivables) and favors technology that supplements human workflows rather than supplants them. Based in Chicago, he pairs entrepreneurial grit and engineering craft with formal training in electrical engineering and entrepreneurial studies.
