A builder with a product background.

I like being close to the work.

I’m Ethan, founder and builder of HelloPorch, a simpler way for people with dementia, Parkinson’s, or limited dexterity to video call family. I also founded and built Ask Linc for financial planning and Uncloud for personal cloud storage. At Navi Nurses, I’m the Engineering Lead / Founding Engineer, building the technology that supports nursing and caregiving at home.

My work spans the full stack: product decisions, APIs, web and mobile applications, infrastructure, and production. I use AI agents as part of the delivery workflow and take responsibility for the result.

I run Ethan Teng Consulting LLC, working directly with founders and teams on product development, engineering, and growth. I bring the same hands-on approach to client work that I use in my own products.

Earlier, I led product and growth work at meez, Postman, Recurly, and Braintree/PayPal. That experience still shapes how I build: understand what people need, make the path to value clearer, and measure whether the product is working.
