Developer. Product builder. Founder.
I'm Justin Wessels. I design, engineer, ship and operate software — connecting the product decisions to the systems that make them work.

How I work
Understand the problem, shape the product and design an experience that makes sense to the person using it.
Connect interfaces, authentication, backend services, real-time communication and payments into a working product.
Ship to stores, deploy to the web, handle operational details and improve the product through release after release.
What I bring to a product
A product is a chain of connected decisions. The sign-in flow affects the account model. The account model affects permissions. Distribution affects payments, releases and support. I work across those boundaries.
In Kids Call Home, the child’s calling experience and the parent’s setup responsibilities serve different needs. That distinction shapes both the interface and the system underneath it.
Authentication, data relationships, notifications and billing need to work together. I connect that implementation to the product’s everyday use, rather than treating each integration as an isolated feature.
Publishing is a milestone in a longer responsibility. Store updates, subscriptions, support and ongoing improvements are part of the product work I take on.
