Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMitchell Katz is a founder and engineer with a decade of experience building and scaling consumer-facing game software, having led ModCore Inc / Essential to a multi-million active-user product prior to a full exit. He blends product leadership and hands-on engineering—designing telemetry pipelines, Grafana dashboards, and core mod architecture while shipping code used by millions and accumulating tens of billions of user-minutes. His work on dozen-plus Minecraft mods (hosted at sk1er.club and EssentialGG) showcases a knack for creative UX and performant engineering, from social features to serverless peer-joining. Comfortable running operations, hiring, and legal/partner negotiations, Mitchell pairs startup grit with data-driven decision making. Unusually for a founder his age, he sustained both company board-level strategy and ground-level engineering across a distributed, international team.
