The other half of the resume.

Irene runs product and the relationships, and she's the IT director for the San Juan and Orcas Island fire districts, which makes her the person those agencies call when something breaks at two in the morning. She's a volunteer firefighter at San Juan Fire, and she's been mobilized herself, sixteen hours a day fighting brush fires in the mountains of Eastern Washington. Before joining the fire service, she spent two decades on software that isn't allowed to go down. She ran government cloud infrastructure and stood up an operational analysis center for the U.S. intelligence community, the kind of place where an outage isn't an inconvenience; it's a matter of life and death. That's the instinct she brings to StationWorks. Build it like lives depend on it, because they will.

Adam writes the software. He's been on the San Juan Fire roster for eight years, and when he's not on a call or in the code, he runs a commercial sheep farm on the island. Ask anyone in the San Juans; they know the farm. He's spent eighteen years building software and running engineering teams. He founded a medical-device startup, sold it to a public company, and stayed on to run the software side after the acquisition. Medical devices live in a corner of the world where "mostly works" isn't going to cut it. The software he builds has to work all the time, every time, no matter what.
