After a 20+ year career in tech, cofounding a venture-backed company, Lucidworks, writing a top-selling book on natural language processing & search, and working with global corporations as well as hyper-growth startups, I’ve seen (and survived) a lot. That’s why I’ve formed Develomentor LLC, the plug-and-play tech leadership solution, where our team’s experience and expertise go to work for you. "Grant's arrival at Charity Navigator bridged the gap between our departing CTO and the arrival of a new one. We were 3-months away from completely replatforming our website, unifying our two ratings systems, deploying a new CRM, and launching into the 2022 Giving Season. It was hectic. Grant's calm, expertise, and broad knowledge significantly contributed to our success. In addition to mentoring our engineering teams, he successfully interfaced with external technical consultants, kept me and others on the executive team current on progress, and ultimately, with our new CTO, once she joined us, enabled us to have a successful and timely launch. Grant is a terrific technical leader with strong business acumen that any organization could rely upon as their fractional CTO."- Michael Thatcher, CEO of Charity Navigator“Grant has a unique combination of breadth and depth in the search space, from designing a search solution for performance and stability at scale, while also having deep expertise in the internals of the engine, such as text analysis, relevancy tuning, query optimization, and index design. You won’t find a better teacher to provide a solid foundation in the theory as well as how to apply it when building real world search applications” - Tim Potter, Search Engineer @ Apple“Engaging Develomentor was hugely valuable to our team. Grant Ingersoll’s deep expertise and ability to collaborate with our Product and Engineering teams helped focus our project, identify options, and ultimately define a technical strategy that best aligns with the needs of our business and customers” - Nick Burling, VP of Product Management at NasuniElevate your company’s tech strategy with fractional C-Level executive services to optimize operations, streamline project workflows, and unlock sustainable growth.
