Justin Hoffman is a multidisciplinary technologist and fiction author based in Chicago with 10 years of professional experience and a longer history running his own web development practice since 2003. He blends hands-on engineering—PHP, Drupal, WordPress—and technical leadership from roles including Principal Software Architect and CTO with a parallel career as an editor/publisher and self-published poet who founded and produced a fiction magazine. Equally comfortable shipping transactional systems and designing creative projects, he has run product teams, owned technical stacks, and continued to publish original fiction via Substack. His background in film and playwriting informs a storytelling-first approach to product and team communication, and he frequently combines editorial design with web delivery in small-press and indie media contexts.
