Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolChad Calhoun is a seasoned engineering leader with 15+ years scaling product-focused teams and building resilient B2B2C platforms across fintech and proptech. He has repeatedly grown organizations from small engineering teams into cross-functional R&D groups—most notably expanding Homebot’s engineering from 5 to 30+ engineers while supporting growth to $40M ARR and driving The Futures App from contractor-only delivery to a performant in-house team that tripled customer adoption. Chad pairs pragmatic, product-first engineering with strong operational craft—architecting payment systems, infra migrations (Heroku→AWS), IaC, and cost-saving initiatives that materially reduced AWS spend. He emphasizes people-first leadership, career frameworks, and measurable developer productivity improvements, turning individual contributors into directors and stabilizing tenure during hypergrowth. Colleagues describe him as a “chessmaster” who aligns individual strengths with product outcomes and experiments quickly with Minimum Lovable Product iterations. Based in Arvada, CO, he balances hands-on technical work with recruiting, coaching, and a habit of testing AI-assisted dev tools to accelerate time-to-market.
