Senior🎓
Top SchoolBrentan Alexander is a serial founder and technical leader who currently serves as Co-founder and CTO of Roebling, building cloud- and AI-driven tools to accelerate 21st-century infrastructure delivery. With a PhD from Stanford and over a decade of hands-on engineering and executive experience, he has overseen underwriting and execution for more than $2B of insurance capital and advised global clients from Shell to Microsoft. He founded Swift Calcs to simplify web-based technical computing and launched EnergyFolks to connect thousands in the energy community, blending product-building with sector stewardship. Known for having reviewed over a thousand project proposals, he brings a rare combination of technical rigor, commercial judgment, and failure-root-cause insight that consistently separates viable projects from vaporware. Outside work he’s as likely to be modeling gasification kinetics as hiking the East Bay hills with his daughters.
