Jerome Illgner is a Co-Founder and COO with nine years of hands-on software engineering experience, focused on building scalable AI-driven tools that streamline operations and drive revenue. He has a proven startup track record—founding a company acquired within eight months and reclaiming over $120k ARR through a billing system overhaul while cutting deployment times by 98%. Jerome has shipped high-impact ML and LLM solutions, from processing $300M of political-interest data to a permit-automation app that generated $1M in four months, demonstrating an ability to turn complex data workflows into productized, low-latency experiences. Based in Los Angeles, he blends systems programming instincts with product-first leadership to simplify marketing operations at The Ad Spend, and he’s known for squeezing dramatic efficiency gains out of both engineering and business processes. An understated but consistent theme in his work is pairing rapid prototyping with measurable business outcomes—shortening time-to-value while maintaining technical rigor.
