Hi, I'm Jared Rapp. I have over 10 years of experience as a full stack engineer and nearly 4 years as a VP of engineering where I managed a team of 6 senior product engineers. At that role I worked directly with the leadership team to translate business objectives into engineering projects and then with my engineering team to bring them to life. Along the way I had the opportunity to present to the board of directors, pitch our company to potential acquirers, perform countless diligence exercises and ultimately navigate a bankruptcy process.

On the development side I'm just as happy writing software as I am hosting it, optimizing it or monitoring it for problems.

Most of my experience has been in online e-commerce which involved countless a/b tests, hundreds of marketing technology integrations, load testing and performance optimization (I hate Black Friday!). We also built some amazingly engaging experiences including a fashion crowdsourcing platform and a live streaming shopping experience where customers could chat with our staff as we launched new products daily. In a prior life I also built Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS).

I'm open to consulting, contracting, full or part time work.

I'm also open to pick-up basketball in San Francisco!

I am a software developer currently working in the telecommunications industry, but I am eager to explore new opportunities and expand my horizons. Although my primary interests are in network programming and game development, I am open to other challenges if they give me an opportunity to grow and develop myself as a programmer. My interests are diverse, as showcased by my portfolio of personal projects, which can be found at https://theshoemaker.de/projects, but I am mostly interested in systems programming roles.

I’m a software engineer currently working at Meta on AI systems co-design.

I’m interested in moving back towards more mainstream software development, especially if it involves interaction engineering with emerging technologies, and more involvement in the creative / UX part of the workflow. I am also open to continuing to work in AI for the right project. The most important thing to me is having healthy growth opportunities available.

I grew up with an interest in computers, and worked on a wide variety of projects, starting with game engine development when I was in high school, then professionally cross-platform multimedia application development, robotics systems, biotech, and web security before my current role with AI systems.

I am open to a path leading to TPM, lead/management, or co-founder roles.
