Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMichael Gartner is a Technical Lead and founder with eight years of engineering experience focused on the intersection of software and information management. Currently leading development at Discourse Graphs and running Cybrarian Services, he builds plugins and systems that make knowledge bases intuitive and collaborative, drawing on experience managing RoamJS extensions and university-scale research graphs. Michael blends front-end UX sensibility with pragmatic backend work, having shipped e-commerce and marketing platforms earlier in his career and now specializing in tools-for-thought to explore how we form beliefs. Based in Saskatoon, he pairs hands-on coding with consultancy and community-facing support, and often frames technical solutions through lenses of productivity, psychology, and philosophy. An often-overlooked strength is his librarian-rooted approach to information architecture—treating digital knowledge as a living ecosystem rather than static assets.
