My name is

Drew Pomerleau

I ship software.

From kiosks and mobile apps to cloud platforms—sail with me through what I do and what I’ve built.

Who am I

Builder first. Engineer always.

  • I taught myself to code when I was 8.
  • I started freelance web development when I was 13—feel free to check out my first portfolio from 2008.
  • Founded an alcoholic beverage mobile ordering company, Noble, and scaled it through acquisition by GRUBBRR.
  • Led engineering orgs and shipped products 0→1—from kiosks to cloud platforms.
  • B.S. Computer Science & Business Administration, Northeastern University.
  • Based in Fort Lauderdale, FL—still hands-on in the code.

What I do

Build products. Lead people. Connect systems.

  • Lead engineering orgs Pods, process, and delivery for teams of 40+
  • Ship 0→1 Stack choice, CI, codebase foundations, first releases
  • Architect platforms APIs, cloud infra, payments, and POS integrations
  • Hands-on when it counts C#, JS, Swift, React, Svelte, Node—still in the code

2017 – 2025 · Founder & CTO
