Background

About Adam Tervort

I build things from scratch.For 12 years, I've specialized in taking projects from "what if we." to "here's the production URL." Whether it's an internal tool that saves a team hours/year, a prototype that validates a product hypothesis, or a system that finally makes a painful workflow tolerable—I'm the person who figures out how to make it real.WHAT I DO BEST:→ 0-to-1 product development: I thrive in ambiguity. Give me a problem and I'll ship a working solution.→ Automation & internal tools: I've built systems that transformed manual processes into push-button operations.→ Technical translation: I bridge the gap between what business needs and what engineering can deliver.→ AI-augmented workflows: I leverage LLMs and automation to multiply what small teams can accomplish.RECENT BUILDS:• TL;DResume - AI-powered resume tailoring that matches your experience to job descriptions• ComicCaster - Automated comic strip aggregation from RSS to daily PDF delivery• Wise Squid - End-to-end podcast production from MP3 upload to published episode• Church Building Scheduler - Multi-stakeholder resource scheduling with conflict resolutionMY APPROACH:I prototype fast, iterate based on real usage, and ship things that actually get used. I'm not interested in building features that sit in a backlog—I want to solve problems people have today.I've spent 11 years at SpiderOak building encrypted collaboration tools, managing teams, and scaling systems. Before that, I consulted for companies that needed someone who could just make things work.Currently exploring new opportunities where I can build, ship, and make an impact.Let's talk: adamtervort.com/about
