Senior🎓
Top SchoolRob Boyd is a seasoned software architect with 17 years of professional experience and over 20 years of hands-on programming passion, currently shaping platform architecture at Netskope. He has repeatedly taken systems from concept to production and scale—most notably leading Eat to Perform from idea to a $3M ARR product and architecting petabyte-scale data systems at CrowdStrike and Barracuda. His expertise spans cloud-native infrastructure, streaming data pipelines, and polyglot engineering (Clojure, Python, React/React Native, Kafka, Flink, Kubernetes), blending deep technical design with operational rigor. A founder at heart, Rob has launched startups and built hardware/software hybrids like a 6-DoF AR/VR stylus, showing a rare mix of product intuition and low-level engineering. He excels under pressure, driving cost-saving infrastructure decisions (e.g., multi-datacenter rollouts that saved $1M/month) while mentoring teams to ship resilient systems. Based in Bentonville, Arkansas, he brings entrepreneurial grit and a proven track record of turning complex requirements into practical, scalable solutions.
