John Bliss

I've led technology strategy and delivery for New Venture Escrow, DiversyFund, Kobie Marketing, and digital marketing organizations, modernizing platforms while improving reliability, security, and operational clarity.

At New Venture Escrow, I own technology strategy across VentureTrac, AWS, Alanna, HubSpot, SoftPro, and Sendifi. I've built Power BI and SQL analytics, documented workflows and runbooks, strengthened controls, and led AI initiatives to automate support and workflows.

At DiversyFund, I modernized AWS infrastructure across EC2, RDS, and S3, introduced end-to-end observability, automated investment workflows, and helped achieve 100% year-over-year retention through stronger engineering practices.

Across 30 years in FinTech, MarTech, energy, ISPs, nonprofits, and the U.S. Navy, I've built scalable teams, stabilized production platforms, and turned competing priorities into disciplined execution. I value high standards, measurable outcomes, and simple operating rhythms that help teams move quickly without losing reliability or trust.
