Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJeremiah Jordan is a seasoned software architect and technical lead with 13 years focused on database engineering and distributed systems, currently guiding NoSQL strategy for Astra DBaaS within IBM’s WatsonX Data and AI group. He has deep, practical expertise in Apache Cassandra—shaped by roles at DataStax and as an active Apache Cassandra PMC member—bringing production-ready design, scaling, and operational insight to cloud-native DBaaS. Jeremiah’s background spans embedded real-time systems and high-performance C++ work at Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman to large-scale data platform re-architectures at Morningstar, giving him a rare full-stack systems perspective. He excels at translating complex low-level constraints into resilient, scalable architectures and mentoring cross-functional teams through that process. Based in Chicago, he combines formal graduate training from Georgia Tech with a track record of leading projects from device drivers to global database services. A less obvious strength is his ability to bridge mission-critical embedded development rigor with modern distributed database practices, enabling robust, secure systems at scale.
