scott munn - partner & chief technology officer

Scott is a rocket scientist. No kidding. He earned his degree at Georgia Tech in Aerospace Engineering, and spent the first few years of his career designing flight control software for a big Georgia Tech client — the U.S. Army. That’s where he learned the real meaning of “mission critical” software development.

While most of Peachtree Solutions’ clients aren’t dealing with quite such life-or-death technology requirements, Scott’s insistence on sound, scalable software design has carried through from those early days. This focus, along with his appreciation of the creative process, makes Scott a dynamic problem solver and invaluable client advisor.

Scott serves as the technical lead on all Peachtree Solutions projects. He is hands-on in every phrase of project design, development and deployment. There are few people with Scott’s mix of technical knowledge and business savvy, and clients benefit from his ability to smoothly implement even the most complex projects.

A zealous student of current technology, Scott is an active participant in several technology forums. When not in front of a computer or with a client, Scott is an avid adventure and endurance sport enthusiast.
