Jeff Jacobson 🍃

Backend-focused software engineer based in Boston. I work primarily in Python and Django, with experience across the full stack. I care about documentation -- by humans, for humans -- and testing. Designwise I favor solid color blocks, visibility of information, and responsiveness that supports usability.

When I'm not building software I'm playing piano or saxophone, writing tunes, or reading and thinking. I believe art is the most important thing humans do and am always up for talking about jazz or modernism. You can find my occasional thoughts on tech and philosophy on LinkedIn.

Currently consulting, teaching, and staying open to what comes next.

things I work with

Python · Django · FastAPI · PostgreSQL · Playwright · pytest · Docker · AWS · Linux

a few things I've built

  • jazztunes — Django app for managing a jazz repertoire, with analytics and TDD throughout
  • bellona — universal data ontology platform built with FastAPI and Agno
  • jobsearch — Playwright-based CLI tool for automating job board searches
  • gfetch — Gmail API app for creating offline email backups
