Thad Brown is an implementation lead and platform engineer with over 20 years of technology experience, specializing in delivering exceptional customer experiences across startups and institutional finance. He spent seven years helping scale Flywheel from an early team into a 150+ person company serving top life‑sciences and pharma organizations, where he balanced deep technical discussions with hands‑on user support. He also supported Yale’s investments office for seven years, managing sensitive research and infrastructure systems where patience and conservative change management were essential. That mix taught him to pair improvisational, customer‑focused problem solving with disciplined, risk‑aware operations. Thad brings broad technical fluency—from cloud architecture and DevOps to databases and desktop support—combined with humility and a practical, people‑first approach to change. Based in Minneapolis, he also consults independently, applying the same pragmatic blend of engineering and operational judgment to diverse clients.
