MTAR T3D Sessions: Stepping away from AWS, Google and databases to explore machine learning
In this session, Command Prompt Founder JD sits down with Kevin Jernigan, Chief Product Officer at J4 Capital LLC, whose career spans decades across the world’s biggest database and cloud companies.
Kevin walks us through his journey from Oracle, AWS (Aurora PostgreSQL), MongoDB (Atlas Serverless), and Google Cloud, reflecting on what it meant to “reinvent the wheel” in database engineering — and why he ultimately stepped away from the database world.
If you’re interested in databases, AI efficiency, brain-scale compute, or the future of machine learning, this short talk is for you.
