Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTodd Nist is a seasoned technology leader and founder with over a decade of modern engineering leadership and decades of hands-on systems experience dating back to the 1980s. As CEO of RAD Tech Consulting and former VP of Engineering roles, he designs and ships cloud-native, data-intensive platforms—specializing in distributed systems, streaming analytics, and CI/CD across AWS, GCP, and Azure. He has led product and architecture teams to build real‑time ITOA pipelines and scalable microservices using Kafka, Spark, Cassandra and containers, and he pairs that technical depth with board- and investor-level technology strategy. Todd’s career spans startups and enterprise engagements where he focused on operationalizing big data, observability, and extensible collector frameworks that process millions of events per minute. Based in Georgetown, Texas, he combines an MBA with a practitioner’s pedigree from systems programming to executive leadership, and he’s known for mentoring engineers while keeping delivery velocity high. An uncommon detail: his roots in systems administration and the U.S. Coast Guard inform a discipline for reliability and pragmatic architecture still evident in his products today.
