Summary
Jon Mccartie is a seasoned software engineering leader with over 16 years of hands-on and management experience and more than 20 years of industry involvement, currently directing Heroku API and Salesforce Functions teams from Portland, Oregon. He leads cross-functional organizations (4 teams, 28 staff) to deliver developer-focused cloud and elastic compute products, combining product partnership, program cadence, and technical vision for Salesforce DX. Jon has a track record of launching complex platform features—having been brought mid-project to steer Salesforce Functions to launch—and of improving support-driven product quality and team processes at scale. A former founder and CTO of a SaaS startup, he pairs entrepreneurial product instincts with enterprise delivery discipline and an MS in Technology Management. Not obvious from his title: he began his career in media and education roles, which contributes to his strengths in technical communication and customer empathy.
