Summary
Colton Voege is an engineer and startup founder with 11 years of experience building and scaling production-grade web platforms, from a dorm-room MVP to an acquisition by HackerRank. As Mimir’s co-founder and CTO he wrote the initial codebase, hired and mentored a high-performing engineering team, and later led that team through integration at HackerRank as an Engineering Manager. He’s repeatedly rebuilt struggling stacks into reliable, deployable products—relaunching Readlee, architecting Fidelity’s downtime-free ETL, and driving Beacons’ move to Terraform, TypeScript, SSR, and five-nines reliability. Colton excels at hiring strong teams, creating onboarding and training processes, and restoring engineering health in high-stakes environments. Based in Indianapolis, he combines hands-on coding chops with a track record of operational improvements and infrastructure-first thinking that turn brittle systems into scalable platforms.
