I'm Russell Jones, an Ojibwe developer from Sagamok Anishnawbek in Northern Ontario.
I build the infrastructure Indigenous communities actually own.
- Waaseyaa — PHP framework for Indigenous governance. Entity system, access control, AI-native.
- Minoo — language and cultural preservation platform. Dictionary, teachings, community, data sovereignty.
- OIATC — Ontario Indigenous Technology Council. Governance, digital sovereignty, infrastructure stewardship.
- NorthOps — consulting for non-profits and First Nations organizations.
- North Cloud — content intelligence pipeline: crawls, classifies, and routes articles in real time
- GoFormX — modular form builder and backend
I write about AI-augmented development, building open source infrastructure, and what digital sovereignty looks like in code.
