Jon Raasch
Artist, designer, developer, leader.

Erasing the lines between how something looks, how it's built, and how it works.

Leadership & Approach

I've built & led engineering, design & product organizations of 50+ people across venture-backed startups & global enterprise.

I've established AI engineering practices, shepherded an M&A exit, and shipped products that moved real revenue.

I get the right people pointed at the right problems and get out of their way.

How I Work With AI

Driving adoption and shipping AI-enabled products is fun. I also get hands on with the tools I'm championing.

While my views on AI seem to change once a month, the underlying discipline doesn't. Automation isn't new, it's just much better.

Building prototypes has gotten cheap, but it still takes time to build something you're proud of, and more to support it.

When everyone has the same tools, standing out means getting the details right. That only happens when you're selective about what you do.

What I Do For Fun

Outside of work I'm a visual artist. I make prints, draw comics, and occasionally take on illustration work.

I also co-founded an independent FM radio station, Freeform Portland, and DJed there for two years. My sets were an eclectic mix of hip hop, vaporwave, and a little bit of new age. My taste in music is objectively bad.
