Built the initial Reportly prototype, then led product and engineering direction as the company expanded to a technical team. Stayed hands-on, with substantial work on the AI service and the .NET application layer.
Personally closed four contracts totaling $63,275 CAD, all self-sourced with no paid acquisition, on top of $106,500 in qualified pipeline built by multi-threading firm principals, project managers, and staff engineers.
Set the ICP, qualification criteria, and pricing from scratch off 180+ discovery conversations across 140+ firms. Ran every demo and POC myself on the product (Next.js, .NET, PostgreSQL, Stripe).
Wrote the outbound stack in Apps Script: automated sequencing, reply detection, and a 3-7-7 follow-up cadence across every campaign.

I'd hand him a problem - often not fully defined, since I'm not the technical one - and he'd come back quickly with something that actually worked.
Zander supported a number of tech-forward initiatives and AI tool development for me at Effortlo, and he's the kind of person every founder hopes to have on the team.
I'd hand him a problem - often not fully defined, since I'm not the technical one - and he'd come back quickly with something that actually worked. He built our outreach and follow-up automation largely on his own, took feedback well, and turned fixes around fast, often the same day. Throughout, he was professional, communicative, and genuinely easy to rely on.
What impressed me most was his ability to take what I needed in plain business terms and turn it into a working technical solution without me having to spell out the how. He's sharp, dependable, and takes real ownership of his work. I'd happily work with him again and recommend him without reservation.

I originally reached out to Zander hoping to sign his team at VibeOps up as a customer for GrantFundPro. Funny how that turned out - a few conversations in, he'd completely flipped it and I ended up becoming HIS client instead!
I originally reached out to Zander hoping to sign his team at VibeOps up as a customer for GrantFundPro. Funny how that turned out - a few conversations in, he'd completely flipped it and I ended up becoming HIS client instead! That alone should tell you how sharp and convincing the guy is.
What stood out most was how fast he got to the heart of what we needed and turned it into something that actually worked. His team was super responsive, handled the tricky technical pieces without any fuss, and worked right alongside our own developers rather than around them. He's just as strong on the business side of a conversation as the technical side - which honestly isn't common.
One of the more impressive people I've worked with, hands down. Would recommend him to anyone, and I'm sure we'll work together again!
