Hi, I'mJeff McGillis Heiden
I engineer high-performance distributed systems, multi-agent orchestrations, and scalable AI infrastructure with a focus on sovereign, offline-first architectures.
About Me
I'm a Systems Architect specializing in building autonomous AI clusters, local-first multimodal engines, and resilient high-performance applications. My background as an Air Force GMU selectee instilled a deep appreciation for security, reliability, and operating effectively in constrained environments.
My engineering focus is on creating sovereign, end-to-end solutions that merge rigorous systems design with advanced AI. From architecting secure MVVM applications to building deterministic simulations and Spatial AI engines, I prioritize scalable, cloud-independent architectures.
When I'm not coding, you can find me exploring new technologies and creating advanced 3D printing engineering projects.

Work Experience
PM / PO / Technical Lead
Sole architect of a full-scale industrial hiring platform built over 7 months. Researched and selected the entire tech stack (Bubble.io, Manatal ATS, NextERP), designed the system architecture from initial Figma wireframes through production deployment. Implemented search algorithms, intelligent scheduling, and suggestion engines. Built four distinct account tiers (Client, User, Admin, Tech) with role-based access control. Integrated enterprise ERP endpoints, automated complex cross-system workflows, and managed deployment infrastructure end-to-end.
Chief Architect & Founder
Designed and built a multilingual, AI-powered family application as a production-ready MVP. Architected a secure MVVM infrastructure with AES-256 device-only encryption—keys never leave the client, with a deterministic recovery phrase system inspired by crypto wallet UX and Wickr's forward-secrecy model. Implemented real-time key-change notifications (à la WhatsApp) to alert users of security state changes.
Military Training & Leadership
Accepted into Swedish Air Force Officers Training (Und/Säk) — Blekinge Flygflottilj, 2013. Did not complete. Developed operational discipline, threat-model thinking, and the ability to execute reliably in high-stakes, resource-constrained environments—principles that directly inform my approach to building resilient, sovereign systems.
Computing Science (coursework, no degree completed)
Specialized in AI, systems design, and low-level programming. Research focus on algorithmic optimization, formal methods, and distributed computation—laying the theoretical foundation for production-grade systems architecture.
