Director of Technology at AdGood

Matt
Heiting.

Technology,
put to work.

i integrate AI into how companies actually work. the data, the tools, and the everyday processes behind it all.

Currently at AdGood.
Also building Matty Builds It.

AI in the
daily workflow.

one of AdGood's first two employees. i own and build the technology the company runs on.

i made Claude the company-wide working interface, backed by internal knowledge repos. an agent i built carried the migration off HubSpot and now builds and maintains Salesforce.

The work around the work

Snowflake ingestion for ad server data. commission systems and insertion orders. a nonprofit profiling system that matches organizations with available inventory and feeds lead generation.

Role and responsibilities

Something useful
after the chat.

Cubby turns conversations into persistent business apps that AI can use through declared tools.

the app keeps its data and workflows. a compatible AI client connects with authorization, so the conversation can work with the app.

Built through the stack

i built and ran the first Cubby as a deployment platform on Kubernetes: code to a live URL, with multi-tenant routing, per-user databases, and auth. that work is the foundation for what i'm building now.

See Cubby

Get the data
to do its job.

before the AI work, there were years of turning business questions into working data systems.

at Ad.net, i rebuilt analytics ingestion from raw Kafka streams and brought AI into Looker reporting and ClickHouse SQL workflows.

Starting with the actual problem

at JibJab, i built the BI stack on Redshift and Looker, developed retention and growth models, and earlier replaced manual finance-close steps with Postgres, Python, and SQL.

The full work history

The work
so far.

business systems have been the thread through it all. understanding the problem, then building what makes the next day easier.
