Bryan Hunter is a seasoned technology leader and Global CTO with over 15 years of experience applying Lean principles to software development and shipping high-volume, high-velocity distributed systems. An artist-turned-engineer, he brought functional programming into his practice in 2007 and has since specialized in Elixir and F# for building resilient, maintainable systems on the Erlang VM. He founded NashFP to cultivate the Nashville FP community, taught distributed algorithm design at Tennessee State University, and has advised enterprises like Microsoft, HCA, and UBS on process and architecture. Bryan blends hands-on engineering, mentorship, and product strategy—having served as the first Product Manager for Xamarin.Forms and led engineering at Firefly Logic before moving into advisory and CTO roles. Civic-minded and anti-authoritarian by nature, he pairs a creative background (MFA) with pragmatic system design to reduce waste, improve quality, and accelerate delivery at scale.
