Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Meyer is a seasoned software engineer and solution architect with over four decades of hands-on experience spanning software development, server architectures, and cloud platforms. He has driven technical sales and competitive strategy at scale—generating tens to hundreds of millions in revenue while briefing C-suite audiences at Sun Microsystems, IBM, and Salesforce. A Principal Solution Engineer focused on U.S. Federal accounts, he blends deep systems-level expertise (SPARC, Solaris, AIX, Linux) with polished storytelling and customer evangelism.
