BRIAN RILEY

Principal + Technical Architect

Brian has over 2 decades experience creating and delivering digital solutions and has loved every minute of it. He’s a CTO that’s also a hands-on coding architect that enjoys designing complex software systems as much as writing the code for them. He works directly with technical leadership, product owners, software developers and user experience designers to coalesce business and technical requirements with the creative vision.

“I get a kick out of taking a back-of-the-napkin idea and bringing it to life as a working product. I'm passionate about technology and helping clients succeed with the right toolset; I have expertise in software architecture covering both the front-end client, back-end server stack and cloud architecture, but remain technology agnostic as I help drive clients to the appropriate technology for their solution. Let's sit down and figure it out together.”

Brian’s initial bona fides come from an 8 year stint at IBM delivering enterprise applications after studying Mathematics and Computer Science at The College of the Holy Cross. He's an avid surfer, snowboarder, and volleyball ace, and currently lives on Boston's South Shore.
