Jarrod Pyper
Senior Lead Developer
I came to Smile Marketing in 2011 building some standalone sites as a freelancer. That turned into an exciting and challenging project of helping create a system to build over 1000 sites using newer technology. Somewhere along the line I decided this was the home for me and accepted a full time position.
My favorite thing about my job is seeing the difference my work makes for our internal teams and our clients. I love when I can make something faster and easier to empower others to work more effectively. In my spare time I do a lot with my 5 kids and work on our small homestead farm, gardening and raising chickens, pigs, quail, and turkeys. I love books, podcasts, and consuming information of all kinds.
One thing that may be surprising about me is that I have a passion for learning and teaching the Enneagram as a tool for self-knowledge and development. Someday I'd like to become an Enneagram coach that helps people become who they really are, even if it's always on the side and never earns me a cent.
