JVS & Associates Inc.
Technology, product, AI, and executive expertise.
Hands-on operators, advisors, and investors for companies building in software, data, and AI. Led by Jordan van Schyndel.
01 — Expertise
Where we spend our time.
-
Technology
Architecture, product engineering, and the systems that survive scale — from first commit through acquisition.
-
Product
Ideation and product/market fit, then the harder work: velocity, owned audiences, and closing the gap between plan and performance.
-
AI
Agentic, decision-ready systems that put data to work. Predictive intelligence with a human-centric bar — not theater.
-
Executive
CEO and CTO leadership, M&A, board governance, and building cultures that people actually stay for.
02 — Selected work
Companies built, led, and exited.
-
Profitable digital services firm — ideation, strategy, design, and product engineering for startups and enterprise. One voluntary departure in six years.
-
Card-linked rewards. Technology strategy, InfoSec for big-bank audits, and board-level partnerships that made the business real.
-
Apex: agentic, predictive business intelligence grounded in motivational data — turning customer and employee data into decision-ready action.
-
Unified growth platform for modern CPG brands: velocity, owned audiences, and the distance between plan and performance.
-
Mentorship for founders scaling software companies — the same long view on people that built the firms above.
