After graduation from Harvey Mudd College in 1991 with a B.S. in Engineering with a focus on hardware and software, Jeff began his career at Intuit, the makers of QuickBooks and TurboTax. After Intuit, Jeff helped found an engineering department at a small visual design company to build C++ class libraries for highly customized user interfaces. During the late 1990s he was a founding engineer at an online recruiting startup and helped create a two way job seeker to employer matching algorithm and job invitation system.
