Mark Pace is Jolokia’s Founder and CTO, responsible for Research and Development of systems and services. He has over 20 years of experience in networks, internet and video streaming.

Pace designed all of Jolokia's systems based on a few key concepts that he is passionate about, based on the philosophy that Jolokia should be quick to adapt to customers’ needs. The streaming platform can deploy systems with the speed of the cloud and lock things up when security concerns require compartmentalization.

Pace co-founded one of the first social networking sites. At the time, the online dating sector was driving innovation on the Internet, with video streaming, user picture databases, live chat rooms, and algorithm-based friend matching. Thanks to Pace's technical designs, the flagship site grew to 2 million users before being sold in 2006. Pace invented and patented a distributed content identification system that is in use in many popular anti-spam systems.

Mitch is Jolokia’s Vice President of Development, responsible for software and platform development.

Mitch has held a variety of roles from an educational software developer for local community, to being a security administrator for a large multinational firm. Mitch’s passion is everything code related; he loves to code. He regularly retreats to his basement for days at a time to work on creating secure, efficient applications for Jolokia.

Mitch has been coding since the age of 7, starting on an old Spectrum Sinclair in Basic. In secondary school Mitch realized what fun could be had with the more “abused” side of computers; it's always fun to re-write graphic card drivers to listen for a special network crall to flip entire desktops upside down… especially when its broadcast to an entire IT department in a high school and every machine flips its screen upside down at the same time.

Jay is Jolokia’s Head of Sales and Marketing Development. He is responsible for the lead generation, sales support and marketing.

An ex-Hollywood actor, Jay decided to channel his communication skills into something a bit steadier in his quest to pay his bills, while building actual discernible business skills. Figuring his degree in Theatre Arts and Speech Communications needed to be put to better use, Jay jumped head first into the world of Entertainment PR.

He then moved into the online space as one of the first PR guys, starting from scratch and carving out his own niche as an all-around journeyman, purposely choosing to do what many in this burgeoning arena neglected to do or simply ignored.

He organizes annual trade shows and sells and markets for a wide array of clients including but not limited to attorneys, resource sites, affiliate programs, movie makers and models. Jolokia marks the second employer/employee relationship between Pace and Jay, with the previous history involving PR and media relations with the social network that Pace sold in 2006.

Sales is a dirty word for resource communications. Clients have problems and through sales (resource communications), we help solve them.

Donna Smith Fee has been in sales in a number of industries including automotive, higher ed, academic publishing, restaurants, real estate, and corporate training.

When Brandon was 11 years old, he began creating mods for games, and drawing all of his artistic ideas - his interests began to grow from there until he was creating entire games from scratch for the excitement and fun of it. Brandon went to a game development college when he was 18, but he eventually started working with seniors and professors on their final projects and personal projects during his first year.

Brandon left college after the first year when he learned that he didn't need the college to fuel his artistic and creative drives. Brandon's passions have continued to evolve since he left college, and to this day where he is still creating game projects in his own time, and putting his knowledge to use with Jolokia. Brandon started developing games using many different languages until he finally found a language that he loves to use for all of his game development needs (It just so happens that Jolokia uses that language as well).

Before Jolokia, Brandon developed application software for insurance agents. He began as a QA tester, and eventually worked his way up to a developer. Brandon strives for efficiency and optimization, and will work tirelessly until he feels that his output is golden in his perception. Criticism is Brandon's best friend, because he tries to take a little knowledge from every situation he is faced with - someone telling him what he can do better is greatly appreciated.

Aside from programming, Brandon also takes time to delve into his imagination and draw whatever he can think of - on paper or with a tablet, and he loves to play guitar and make music in general. Brandon feels his imagination goes hand in hand with his programming abilities.
