Summary

Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJeff Brateman is a seasoned engineering leader with 12 years of experience scaling distributed teams and payments platforms, currently serving as Head of Engineering at Luna Physical Therapy in Denver. He has run large, cross-continental organizations at PayPal and DailyPay—leading teams of 25–30 engineers, driving major migrations with zero downtime, and delivering billions in monthly TPV. Jeff blends hands-on technical craftsmanship (from mobile SDKs and API tooling to automation like releasinator and openapilint) with operational rigor, instituting onboarding systems, architecture councils, and mandatory testing to raise quality and accountability. He’s adept at navigating hard organizational changes—cost audits, restructures, and C-suite transitions—while recruiting senior talent through an extensive network. A pragmatic problem-solver with a master’s in computer engineering, he’s as comfortable coding CI automation as he is renegotiating vendor contracts to optimize spend.
