Summary
Jeremy Peterson is a hands-on technology-minded leader who blends 12+ years of high-volume retail operations and team leadership at Walmart with creative software and open-source initiatives aimed at practical, people-first automation. He founded ARMRgarden, a live-streaming and AI-driven content platform, and contributes to OpenRBE, an ambitious open-source project focused on resource-based economics, sustainability, and localized automation. Jeremy’s background as a licensed home care aide and community organizer informs his human-centered approach to product design and community building, ensuring accessibility and empathy drive technical choices. Comfortable moving between backroom logistics, Unreal Engine experiments, generative art, and prototype web tooling, he specializes in turning everyday operational pain points into scalable, data-informed solutions. Based in Kennewick, WA, he’s equally likely to sketch a mural to boost store morale as to wire IoT into a tiny house—always aiming to make technology feel practical, playful, and socially beneficial.
