Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJim Ray is a seasoned technology leader and founder with over two decades of software experience and a 14-year focused career building cloud-native web applications. He has led engineering teams and product re-architecture efforts across startups and scale-ups—most recently founding mySite Technologies after senior Rails and VP engineering roles at Xplor and Mudflap. Jim blends hands-on backend expertise (Ruby on Rails, AWS, Kotlin) with CTO-level strategy, having launched an AI-driven fintech startup (aelin.ai) that translates small business finances for lenders. Based in Denver, he pairs technical leadership with people development, mentoring junior engineers and guiding architectural decisions to reduce technical debt. An uncommon aspect of his profile is a parallel career as a certified RYT-200 yoga teacher and Warriors at Ease instructor, delivering wellness programming for veterans while teaching online workshops. That mix of disciplined operational rigor and mindfulness informs his collaborative, mission-driven approach to building resilient teams and products.
