Jeff Hutchins is a pragmatic engineering leader and Co-Founder & CTO with 14 years of experience building scalable backend systems and cloud-native infrastructure. He progressed from systems programming and scientific-instrument control at BYU to full-stack and real-time communications platforms at Jive, then led backend architecture and principal engineering at Vivint Smart Home. Comfortable across languages and services—Python, Java, JavaScript, AWS Lambda/EC2, RDS, messaging and NoSQL—he pairs hands-on coding with product-focused technical leadership. He has a track record of launching production services like cashback platforms and SIP/real-time calling systems, and excels at operationalizing complex distributed systems. Based in Saratoga Springs, Utah, he favors pragmatic, well-instrumented solutions that scale and is drawn to new challenges and continuous learning. As a founder-CTO he now channels that breadth into building resilient backend foundations and guiding small teams from prototype to production.
