Nicky Hajal is a founder and self-taught developer with 12 years of experience building web and mobile products from Austin, Texas, blending a formal background in mechanical engineering and product design from RPI with pragmatic software execution. He leads Matterloop, helping startups, authors, and creators ship iterative, user-focused experiences quickly rather than monolithic releases. As co-founder of Jetto, Pippity, and the WDS Conference digital platform, he has repeatedly turned user behavior insights into product features—like intelligent airfare alerts and friendly, data-driven opt-in experiences—that scale to millions of impressions. Known for merging engineering rigor with design sensibility, he favors transparent, fast processes that prioritize what truly matters for product-market fit. An uncanny constant: he’s been shipping audience-facing tools and social features for events and creators since the early 2010s, long before that niche became mainstream.
