I've spent twenty years building the platforms other engineers rely on. Juniper & Co. puts that experience in your corner.

Most businesses can't justify a senior technology leader on payroll — but the technology bets don't get any smaller. Juniper & Co. exists to close that gap.
I've been shipping production software since 2002 — from running georgiadogs.com at the University of Georgia, to Turner Sports and nba.com, to joining a sports-video startup as its fifth employee and leaving as its Director of Technical Operations. That startup became the NFHS Network, which now streams tens of thousands of live events a year and was valued at nearly a billion dollars in 2022.
Most recently I was a Principal Software Engineer at Cox Automotive, where I built the Logistics division's cloud platform from scratch — the platform 200+ engineers across 30+ teams shipped on every day. It served 15 billion requests a year at 99.99% uptime, carried a $40 million re-platforming, and moved four terabytes of data between databases without losing a byte. In my final years there I led the shift to AI-first engineering practices — work that took internal tooling delivery from weeks to days.
Consulting isn't new to me either: I've done contract modernization work for Home Depot and Manheim, and client work at Trineo, a consultancy acquired by Traction on Demand and later folded into Salesforce. Juniper & Co. is a new firm; the experience behind it isn't.
I started Juniper & Co. to bring that kind of leverage to businesses that can't — and shouldn't need to — build it in-house.
That's also how this firm started: my first client came through a professional relationship that goes back nearly twenty years. It's the way I like to work — long relationships, plain talk, and software that outlasts the engagement.

Founder, Juniper & Co.
Juniper & Co. is new; these principles aren't. They're how I've worked for twenty years, written down.
AI works on your software; a human works with you. The workflows are AI-first — the person in the room, when it matters, is real and present.
No bench, no handoffs. The senior person you meet on the first call is the person who delivers.
Code, infrastructure, accounts, documentation — everything runs in your name from day one. No lock-in, ever.
Decisions explained in business terms, trade-offs included. No enterprise theater, no jargon fog.
Every engagement starts with a fixed-scope diagnostic that's yours to keep. Retainers come only after something works.
Like the juniper tree this company is named for: long-lived, deep-rooted, durable. I optimize for systems — and relationships — that hold up for years.
