Luke Bilger
Entreprenuer / Software Engineering Lead
My passion lies in crafting software with an acquired expertise that spans across all disciplines. This means uncovering a market need, working with product to define customer value, leading design/development/QA/DevOps to deliver that value, and then helping sell / market that value continuously while repeating the cycle.
I want to be THAT software engineer that is fully submersed in people, processes and systems and take companies through the J-curve from Create to Harvest.
My career has involved a variety of scenarios:
- witnessing the acquisition "honeymoon period" end twice
- being a lead for 4 verticals in a mid-sized company
- co-founding an agency and hiring/managing/parting with staff
- being a solo scrappy entreprenuer supporting his family during the sub-prime crash
- learning the culture and SDLC within a Fortune 50 company
- getting thrown in tough situations creating solutions for Fortune 100 companies
- working many all-nighters and deploying code at the same time the birds chirp at sunrise
...and more fulfillingly leading and working with great people who teach and inspire me to be a better engineer and leader.
