About
Every startup's survival depends
on knowing its market, it's all about the Pain Points!
I've been working for startups since 2001, and I've witnessed them rise, and fall.
It's not always the competition. It's not always the product. It's not always the team.
It's never for lack of ideas - we're clever people.
It's always the same thing:
We don't know our market.

HR of Haventec
“Justin was with Haventec right from the start, when it was just himself and two other developers writing some code. He was the lead developer that implemented OpenID into the product and delivered for our first customer. Over the years, he has been the main architect of its frontend, and been responsible for ensuring the product meets customer requirements as Product Owner. He has worn many hats, as senior developer, tech lead, PO, and one of our main innovators.”
