Summary
Ben Novakovic is a seasoned software leader and founder with over a decade of experience building consumer-facing web and mobile products, currently serving as Co-Founder & CTO of Bloody Good Tests. He combines deep front-end and iOS craft—shipped at scale at Twitter #music and in his own Mobile Tweete (which peaked at 7M pageviews/day)—with product and engineering leadership across startups and growth-stage companies like Linktree and MindHive. Ben is fluent in JavaScript/HTML/CSS, iOS and Python, and has a track record modernizing event-driven systems and analytics pipelines to materially improve observability and performance. He thrives at the intersection of music, social connectivity and mobile UX, having integrated with partners such as Spotify, Rdio and The Echo Nest. Equally at home writing production code or mentoring teams, he brings a pragmatic, hands-on approach informed by founding, acquisition and international engineering experience. An off-hours tinkerer, he applies the same curiosity to car restorations and microelectronics projects.
