Johnny Dallas is the founder of Zeet. Zeet is a developer tool to help less experienced engineers easily deploy and scale their applications.

He broke into startups at 14 as a Software Engineer at Bebo (founded by Shaan Puri). A few years later, he was promoted as their Director of Operations, while still being a teenager. When Bebo got acquired by Twitch in 2019 he became the youngest engineer ever at Amazon. Then, he quit Amazon to start Zeet at 19.

We discuss his experience working with Shaan Puri, building various products, getting acquired by the biggest live streaming platform, managing high school & a full-time job & much more.
