I'm JT Embry. For ten years I have built finance and healthcare software, first as an engineer and then as a lead: a SaaS product from an empty repo, a video portal for hospitals, a whole platform moved to a new cloud, and most recently the AI tooling that raised one team's output by 65%.
Before that I ran a bank's help desk, cleaned LiDAR data for a self-driving program, and studied English literature. The pattern holds: find what slows people down, remove it, and leave them able to do the work without me. I measure a job by how much of it still runs after I have left.
I formed Embry Development, LLC in 2026 to do that work for clients. I build what a small office needs from the AI tools it already pays for, keep the records on a computer the office owns, and train the staff. I also build custom software when a business needs a piece that does not exist and, since I put a 3D printer in the shop, printed things: tags, cards, parts, and short runs.
I live in the Louisville metropolitan area. Away from the desk, I restore a Ducati Scrambler, train a dog, and read theology.
One email starts it
Tell me the problem in a few sentences. I read everything and reply within two business days, usually sooner.
- AI system: which AI tools you already pay for, what has to stay private, and who on the staff needs training.
- Software solutions: what the business runs on now, where it hurts, and who would log in.
- 3D printing: a photo with something for scale, rough dimensions, how many, and what it is for, or the file alone.
