Jordan Deeds

I build products from the database up. Over the last five years I've led architecture on a fintech-style music platform, shipped HIPAA-conscious health features, and run client delivery for a web agency — usually on lean teams where engineering quality shows up directly in the business.

My sweet spot is the whole stack: React and React Native on the front, Node.js and GraphQL in the middle, and serverless AWS underneath. I like making technical calls, mentoring engineers, and turning founder-level ideas into specs that actually ship on schedule.
