# Brett Jackson > Staff Software Engineer at Rinse Location: Chicago, Illinois, United States Profile: https://flows.cv/brettjackson ## Work Experience ### Staff Software Engineer @ Rinse Jan 2018 – Present | Chicago, Illinois ### Software Development Co-op @ Eze Software Group Jan 2014 – Jan 2016 | Chicago, Illinois In my time at RealTick, part of Eze Software Group, I have developed a mock API endpoint for streaming market data (and rewrote it in C# for easier maintainability), orders/trading system, and database adapter. During this time, I rewrote a library from C++ to Javascript to produce and consume our proprietary datatype for a Node.js-based mock database adapter. I created a completely automated deployment system for our identity and permissions systems. I finished my co-op by creating a continuous integration testing system for our trading systems. During my second internship (Summer 2015) I worked with a team to implement a mockup of a new client for our IMS Platform, refactored an authentication system to use a new data store, and tracked down memory leaks. I also participated in a company hackathon in which my team won first place. I returned in the Summer 2016 and worked on developing and maintaining an advanced trading platform, utilizing Angular, Kendo, and C#. ### Cashier @ Sears Holdings Corporation Jan 2011 – Jan 2011 | Marion, Illinois, USA I worked seasonally as a cashier at the jewelry counter. ## Education ### Bachelor's degree in Computer Engineering University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign Jan 2012 – Jan 2017 ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/brettbrianjackson - Website: https://brettjackson.org --- Source: https://flows.cv/brettjackson JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/brettjackson/resume.json Last updated: 2026-03-23
