Senior🎓
Top SchoolJames Potter is a founder and seasoned software engineer with 14 years of experience building data-driven products and developer tools from greenfield prototypes to production systems. He founded Rephonic to solve the tedious, unreliable process of podcast research and now powers discovery for clients like Google, HubSpot and Edelman by combining large-scale podcast data with reliable contact intelligence. His background spans full-stack engineering, algorithmic trading (Tradewave), and rapid product delivery for startups and enterprises (Elsevier, Cytora, Kopernio), reflecting strengths in Python, Django, and scalable data systems. James has a knack for turning painful manual workflows into elegant, instrumented platforms—an approach that cut customer research time by orders of magnitude—and he still runs small experimental projects through Babadan Labs. Based in London, he blends hands-on engineering with product-led growth and a practical focus on measurable impact.
