Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolCade Truitt is a Staff Engineer with 13 years of experience building and scaling web applications, currently working on Jelly, a shared inbox at Good Enough. He brings deep Ruby on Rails expertise and a broad operational toolkit—Postgres, Redis, Kafka, Sidekiq, Docker, and both Backbone and React/TypeScript—honed over a decade at Harvest where he tackled billion-row tables and drove order-of-magnitude performance improvements. Cade pairs hands-on engineering with team leadership, having managed an eight-engineer team, run performance reviews, and introduced processes that improved product delivery. He has a track record of diagnosing and fixing critical production issues (memory leaks, slow queries) and shipping customer-facing features end-to-end. Comfortable in both startup and structured environments, he’s equally at home mentoring junior developers and hosting customer demos. Based in Nashville, his background in digital media gives him a pragmatic, design-aware approach to building user-focused systems.
