About Benjamin Jackson

I am a passionate software engineer with experience building full-stack applications, AI-powered tools, and scalable systems. Currently, I am the CTO and co-founder of Wagevo, a venture-backed startup providing early wage access (EWA), where I design and develop the software infrastructure for our platform. I have hands-on experience in C#.NET, Angular, Python, Java, and web technologies, and have contributed to both enterprise and startup environments. I thrive at the intersection of engineering, product development, and user experience, creating solutions that solve real-world problems. Previously, I interned as a Software Engineer at Delinea, developing full-stack features within a microservices architecture and co-creating an AI-powered contextual assistant for internal tools. I also have experience in educational robotics and web development for academic institutions. I am committed to continuous learning, collaboration, and leveraging technology to make a meaningful impact.
