Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJacob Jensen is a Senior Software Architect with 11 years of experience building and leading teams that deliver high-traffic, fault-tolerant web services and APIs (handling billions of requests monthly). He blends deep systems and architecture skills—Kubernetes, microservices, event sourcing, hybrid cloud/bare metal—with pragmatic engineering in Go, Kotlin, Scala, C++, Java and practical scripting in Python and Ruby. Known for converting slow SQL and brittle workflows into high-performance, efficient systems, he thrives equally as a hands-on generalist and a domain-savvy technical leader. Jacob prefers leading teams to followership, prioritizes product value over personal credit, and mentors squads to ship resilient, observable platforms. Based in Arizona, he brings a rare combination of performance-first optimization mindset and multilingual communication (speaks German), and enjoys discussing cars as much as scalable system design.
