Jimmy Longley is a senior software engineer and hands-on engineering leader with over a decade of experience building full-stack web systems and scaling teams from the first hire to a 40-person multidisciplinary organization. He has shipped production services across startups and Amazon—ranging from WebGL flight simulators and Java-based high-throughput tracing systems to cloud ETL pipelines and LLM-powered curriculum tooling. At BookNook he bootstrapped product and engineering culture, authored the primary codebase that reached 150,000+ students, and established career ladders and security posture. Comfortable across front-end, backend, and infrastructure, he combines deep technical ownership with product-minded leadership and a passion for education technology. Based in Seattle, he’s equally likely to be optimizing distributed telemetry as he is riffing on learning design—and once traded SEO work for room and board while traveling the world.
