Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJasper Valero is an engineering leader and hands-on platform builder with 11+ years delivering growth, marketplace, and web platform systems from early architecture through scaled delivery. He specializes in modern TypeScript/Node.js and Next.js stacks, CI/CD and experimentation systems, and governance that turned roadmap bets into measurable outcomes like +40% growth and an 80% CI cycle-time reduction. Jasper has repeatedly scaled teams (leading 50 engineers and growing orgs 4x with 100% retention) while staying close to code via architecture reviews, release governance, incident leadership, and observable quality gates. His recent independent work produces public, production-style proof projects—Dockerized APIs with OpenAPI docs, tests, and CI guardrails—to demonstrate platform discipline and repeatable developer workflows. Based in San Francisco, he’s targeting Director/Senior Engineering Manager roles where he can modernize delivery safely and align Engineering, Product, and Data around predictable OKR-driven execution. An operator-first leader, he combines measurable business impact with reproducible engineering practices that make teams reliably faster and safer.
