About Jeff Peterson

The definition of a software engineer has fundamentally changed.AI has multiplied engineering capacity while compressing cost structures. Companies now face a new reality: fewer engineers, faster cycles, and higher expectations for measurable business impact.I build and lead organizations that thrive in that environment.With 15+ years leading SaaS and platform teams, I design and scale AI-native engineering operating models that increase velocity, improve capital efficiency, and align technology directly to sustained revenue growth - enabling smaller teams to outperform legacy organizations without sacrificing long-term durability.Selected impact- Launched multiple SaaS platforms (0 to 1) and scaled to thousands of users and millions in ARR- Implemented AI-first development workflows (Claude, OpenAI, Cursor, MCP), reducing deployment cycles by 60% and cutting defect rates by 75%- Co-authored 4 awarded patents in software-defined networking- Built and scaled DevOps/SecOps and SOC2 frameworks supporting secure, enterprise-grade growthI operate at the intersection of strategy, systems, and people - building resilient engineering organizations that evolve with technology shifts while maintaining accountability, innovation, and execution discipline.I am committed to long-term leadership roles where technology is central to competitive advantage and sustained company growth.
