When he’s not helping finance teams untangle their payments messes, Jay is usually strapped into something loud, fast, or airborne—sometimes all three in the same week.

In the office, he’s a visionary and a natural leader for Accounts Payable teams: the kind of operator who doesn’t just “optimize a process,” but rethinks how AP should work end-to-end—simplifying the chaos, modernizing the tech stack, and rallying teams around a clear path from manual grind to automated control.

He’s also a multi-rated pilot (powered, glider, and unmanned—rotor and fixed-wing) who puts those skills to work with the Civil Air Patrol on search-and-rescue missions, logging real cockpit time when it actually counts.

Back on the ground, he’s a lifelong motorsports addict: a season points champion who’s finished 3rd out of 330 cars in divisional competition—and then decided that wasn’t chaotic enough, so he went all-in on the art (and smoke) of drift driving.

And when things “slow down,” it’s only by Jay’s standards: playing guitar in a band, disappearing off-grid in the mountains, or sending a snowmobile through deep powder like it personally offended him. If it runs on fuel, flies, or makes your heart rate question your life choices, there’s a decent chance Jay’s either done it… or is already planning the next stunt.

I’m a tenth-generation local, San Jose founder's descendant, who traded my carpentry tools for the chaos of Silicon Valley. Co-creating 10 startups with brilliant teams has been equally challenging and rewarding. We've bootstrapped SaaS to $10M+ ARR scaling to a $28.6M Series A, patented ATTN.LIVE's “Attention Engine”, and launched a digital-asset community that reached a nine-figure market cap within six days. Whether lecturing at universities or advising platforms with a billion downloads, I bridge innovation with compliance: Capital ↔ Code ↔ Congress. Long before boardrooms, I found my purpose in the 4,000+ volunteer hours I logged with NGOs. Today, I’m grateful to have a seat at the table where the future is created. When provided with this influence, my prayer is to be a leader known for his joy, love, hope, and courage.

• Entrepreneur in Residence EiR: CCSF’s Center for Entrepreneurship & Innovation; Runway in Twitter’s HQ.

EXPERTISE

SUMMARY
Dealmaker with uncompromising ethics and courage. A “Swiss Army” executive operating at the intersection of Capital ↔ Code ↔ Congress. Ten-time co-founder with expertise in AI, Web3, enterprise infrastructure, consumer software, IP, regulation, compliance, and policy.

With over 10 years of software architecture experience and over two decades of hands-on software engineering experience, I design and build production-grade systems — from cloud-native architectures to AI-driven workflows — with a focus on scalability, reliability, and long-term maintainability.

In recent years, I’ve worked extensively on building AI systems in production, including LLM-based workflows, RAG architectures, and orchestration layers that move beyond proof-of-concept into structured, reliable environments.

I operate at the intersection of business requirements and technical execution — working with stakeholders to define architecture, guide teams, and deliver end-to-end solutions, while remaining deeply hands-on in building core systems.

• Lead architecture and technical strategy for AI-driven and cloud-native platforms
• Translate product and business requirements into scalable technical solutions
• Work directly with stakeholders to design end-to-end architectures and drive implementation decisions
• Design and build scalable distributed systems (AWS, serverless, event-driven)
• Develop production AI systems (LLMs, RAG, agent workflows, orchestration)
• Drive performance, reliability, and system simplification at scale
• Mentor engineers and help teams move from prototype to production
• Improve performance, reduce architectural complexity, and harden production systems through hands-on system design and implementation
