Summary
Matt Sears is a seasoned technology leader and entrepreneur with over two decades of experience shipping web and mobile products, currently serving as CTO at Baxtel and CEO of a small digital portfolio, StaticPop. He founded and grew Littlelines into a long-running Ruby on Rails consultancy that shipped hundreds of products before its acquisition, blending hands-on engineering, design, and client-facing strategy. Comfortable leading teams from solo contributors to 25 engineers across distributed environments, he focuses on scalable, secure platforms, data-center analytics, and AI-infused user experiences. A lifelong creator and artist, Matt pairs product-minded engineering with a designer’s eye—he still sketches and produces digital prints in his spare time.
