I am open to work
Resume
Brandon Klotz
Product engineer and creative. Grand Rapids, Michigan.
Eight years building Ruby on Rails products in startups. I take a feature from the idea to production, and I stay with how it looks while I do it.
ClickFunnels
Software Consultant
April 2023 – Present
- Built the internationalization for 60+ features, so a new language could ship in weeks instead of months.
- Built a Stripe appointment system with automatic tax and round-robin scheduling, a new way to sell paid consultations and events.
- Built a CRM and sales pipeline: drag-and-drop boards, opportunity tracking, and workflow automation, so teams can manage deals and contacts inside ClickFunnels.
Engineering Manager
December 2019 – April 2023
- Helped take a full product rebuild from a skunkworks project through a production launch.
- Managed teams that shipped 30+ features after launch, including email broadcasts, product collections, survey workflows, and two-factor authentication, while still writing code.
- Hired engineers and matched them with projects they could own.
- Also ran the template marketplace and contracted work, including an MVP iOS app.
Software Engineer
April 2017 – December 2019
- Went from junior engineer to core contributor in 12 months: 150+ pull requests, testing patterns, and a reusable UI library that shortened later feature work.
- Built Deployer, a visual map of the release process with an audit trail, so developers could ship and stay PCI compliant.
- On the email broadcast team, built the campaign builder, template management, and audience segmentation used by 100,000+ people.
- Built bulk actions so people could manage millions of CRM records.
Apple
Creative Pro
August 2015 – April 2017
