What they do

Problem

Deploying and scaling compute-intensive browser apps that require per-user dedicated backends is difficult for most teams to build and operate.

Solution

Jamsocket provides a platform to deploy high-performance browser-based applications by automatically provisioning a dedicated backend for each user.

Who it's for

Developers and teams building compute-heavy web apps that need per-user backend environments.

I'm a technical founder building Drifting in Space. My career has straddled the line between engineering and data science, with stints at Google as a software engineer on search, Two Sigma as a quantitative analyst, and botnet detection at an adtech startup. I'm originally from Halifax, Canada, currently based in Brooklyn, and love running, sailing, and exploring new cities.
