 E7: Jonathan Campos, Alto | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 37:23

After getting his masters, Jonathan Campos found himself working with clients, listening to their pain points, and creating software to meet those needs. He worked his way through a handful of startups and agencies, before landing at Bottle Rocket as the chief architect, growing their web and backend practice. Not too long after, a former boss reached out about an opportunity to up-level the ride sharing experience, focusing on simple billing, safety and control over the experience. This opportunity was to become the CTO of Alto.

 E6: Jonathan Perichon, Checkr | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 29:52

Through a chance internship in LA, Jonathan Perichon made his way from France to the United States. In doing so, he fell in love with the culture and opportunity. After working for a startup requiring background checks for its users, he saw first hand how antiquated and slow the process can be. After about 6 months, he and his co-founder set off to build an API driven solution, facilitating the submission, reporting and workflow of background checks for candidate workers… and much more.  Today’s sponsor: DevMountain (https://devmountain.com) Links: checkr.com https://twitter.com/jperichon https://www.deliv.co/ Make sure to SUBSCRIBE and REVIEW!

 E5: Alvaro Sabido, Caribu | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 37:15

A born creative, Alvaro Sabido loves to travel and continuously be learning. His engineering background led him to love anything with an engine, and having worked in a diverse set of companies through consulting, IT, radio and media, he became a natural problem solver, interested in innovating to make things better.  When seeing a picture of someone in the military holding a book up to a webcam, attempting to read to their child back home, he set out to create a solution to integrate a video chat and a children’s book – and what would eventually be called Caribu.

 E4: Sean Washington, Design Kollective | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 42:50

Now-a-days, people are introduced to software development through multiple avenues. And it’s pretty amazing how many other industries parallel the thinking and creative process of writing code – teaching, project management… even music. Sean Washington took an unconventional route into software, through writing music and graphic design. Since then he has been sprinting forward, as a full stack web developer and tech podcast host. His most recent adventure has been becoming the CTO and lead developer of the Design Kollective – giving him the opportunity to not only learn the platform – but to make it his own and define the vision for how to up level the product.

 E3: Leah Culver, Breaker | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 35:49

Podcasts are a great thing – the good parts of a radio show, the powerful snippets from an audio book, with all the content control of a topical news feed. Yet, there was something missing when Leah Culver tried to find her next episode to listen to, while training for her 1st marathon. And that thing was a more powerful way to discover the podcasts you love – through your subscriptions, activity, and most of all – through the power of social networking and suggestion. So she decided to fix it – and built Breaker, an app that helps you discover new podcasts and episodes based on the content you – and your friends – like most.

 E2: Tanner Hearne, Musicbed | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 48:15

A gap used to exist in the world of music licensing. The quality of music available to project teams making promotional videos or materials was pretty low. And for those composing music, getting paid was an untimely event, where checks just sort of “showed up” in the mail. The Musicbed set out to change that, by providing an online marketplace for music licensing. And in the beginning, Tanner Hearne took on the role as the first in house developer – with the job and goal to take the product to new heights, as a well engineered, scalable and secure platform.

 E1: Rylan Barnes, ShopSavvy | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 42:50

For some builders, there is a moment where  technical creativity is catalyzed. For others… it starts much earlier. Rylan Barnes has been working with technology since childhood, starting out by programming his legos to move, and all the way through college, where he built early marketplaces for trading textbooks and built physical, automated chess boards. When he started creating a solution for mobile phone barcode scanning, he had no idea the doors it would open and lead to the formation of his most successful product, venture… and exit – called ShopSavvy.
