Senior🎓
Top SchoolJames Adams is a pragmatic CTO and founder with 13 years of professional experience and a 20+-year hands-on software career spanning startups to enterprises. He blends deep PHP/MVC and SQL expertise with modern stacks like Node.js, React/Vue, Docker and AWS to deliver robust web, mobile and integration solutions. As CTO at 1Traq and president of his own firm, he leads small elite teams to solve domain-specific problems—from frac sand logistics to social networks and industrial automation—while retaining a consultant’s focus on fit-for-purpose architecture. He’s equally comfortable diving into devops, building HA AWS deployments, or writing device-facing Node services that bridge automation hardware and REST APIs. Known for rescuing legacy codebases and instituting engineering best practices, he pairs delivery discipline with practical tooling choices (Ansible, Jenkins, Percona, Composer). Based in Round Rock, Texas, he brings a rare combination of long-term PHP mastery and continual adoption of modern front-end and cloud technologies.
