Top SchoolNathan Toups is a founder and principal consultant with 12 years of hands-on experience building developer platforms, SRE practice, and cloud architecture for startups and scaleups. He founded rojoroboto in 2010 and has consulted with 100+ companies, blending practical production experience as a former CTO and staff platform engineer to make the right path easy and the wrong one hard. Nathan specializes in Internal Developer Platforms, CI/CD optimization, Team Topologies-driven org design, and now extends those patterns to enterprise-wide AI enablement and governance. He pairs deep multi-cloud and compliance know-how (SOC 2, HIPAA/FDA patterns) with rapid prototyping—having shipped security-only Cosmos ICS work and passkey-based session signing prototypes—and emphasizes starting small, proving value, then scaling. Based in Livingston, Texas, he also co-hosts the Book Overflow podcast and runs a newsletter advocating creative, “elegantly lazy” problem solving, signaling a blend of technical rigor and human-centered leadership.
