Todd Jacobsen
Engineering Manager - Platform And SaaS
New Mexico, United States
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTodd Jacobsen is an experienced engineering manager and cloud-native generalist with 15+ years building and operating Linux-based infrastructure and SaaS platforms. Currently leading Platform and SaaS at dotCMS, he marries hands-on engineering—contributing to both front-end and back-end work on notable open-source CMS projects—with operational expertise across AWS and GCP to reduce cost and streamline workflows. His background spans ISP and datacenter operations through to staff engineering roles, giving him a rare full-stack view of systems from networking and servers to developer-facing tooling. A lifelong learner and practical problem-solver, he’s as comfortable fixing Angular UI quirks and Docker/Tomcat configs as he is coaching teams toward production reliability. Off-hours he practices acrobatics and yoga, a hint at the balance and discipline he brings to complex technical challenges.
