Top SchoolMike Hughes is a seasoned technology leader and co-founder currently serving as CTO at Bingo Bard, where he architects and ships a real-time dual-sided (B2C/B2B) social bingo platform. With over 15 years of hands-on experience and a 20+ year history building web applications, he blends product-focused engineering with deep infrastructure and operations expertise from roles as a Sr. DevOps Engineer and AWS Solutions Architect.

At Bingo Bard he owns the full technical scope—architecture, CI/CD, and operations—while translating market feedback into product direction alongside the CEO. Based in Apex, NC, he brings an unusual combination of founder grit (noted by his long-running "Chief Everything Officer" role) and disciplined cloud architecture to startups and mission-driven organizations.
