Summary
Jacob Jay is a multidisciplinary founder and software engineer with nine years of focused experience and two decades of broader technical and entrepreneurial practice, blending hands-on development with product and space design. He leads The Moon Mill, offering R&D across platform architecture, performance and user experience, and builds bespoke software—most recently architecting a performant e-commerce/ERP-integrated platform for a Swiss food delivery startup.
