Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolNate Kohari is a founder and seasoned software engineer with 15 years of experience building scalable web platforms, developer tools, and design systems. He has held technical leadership roles from CTO at startups like AgileZen and Kevel to staff engineer at Stripe, and most recently founded Ardent.ai. Nate bridges product and engineering, shipping full-stack solutions—from Node.js ad servers that scaled to billions of ads per day to TypeScript/React frontends and serverless extensibility work at Auth0. An active open-source author, he created the popular Ninject DI library and has contributed UI and docs improvements to Auth0’s Cosmos design system. Based in Raleigh, NC, he pairs entrepreneurial grit with deep hands-on delivery, often stepping into both product definition and low-level architecture. He’s as comfortable refactoring component libraries and docs as he is driving company-level scaling decisions.
