Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGarrett Jensen is a seasoned technology leader and CTO with nearly 15 years of experience building scalable, reliable web platforms across startups and large enterprises. He co-founded a startup in college and has since led engineering teams to ship event and league-management systems, real-time media tooling, and high-availability services used by millions. At Vega he shapes platform architecture and scalability for event operations, and previously at Genesys he drove micro-frontend decompositions and resilient TypeScript streaming libraries that cut deploy times and support costs. Garrett blends hands-on engineering with strategic leadership, mentoring teams, architecting cross-service features, and maintaining open-source projects with a strong security and quality focus. He’s an early adopter of AI-assisted development, treating tools like Cursor and Claude Code as force multipliers rather than silver bullets. Outside work he pursues personal programming projects, woodworking, and dirt biking, reflecting a pragmatic maker’s mindset that informs his engineering approach.
