Cam

Co-FOUNDER

With a background in avionics and machining, Cam leads our product development team with ongoing iterations and prototypes for Northern Lyte. In addition, he manages our field test and QA programs.

His background includes design and manufacturing work for Patagonia, the Marines, and most recently Mystery Ranch backpacks with an expertise in soft-goods design and injection molding.

A constant tinkerer, Cam’s love for design and building grew out of hours playing with Legos and eventually small engines. He can always be found with a Moleskin journal and a pen capturing ideas and observing users for building better products.

 
 
 
 

Jake

Co-FOUNDER

With a background in 3D printing and e-commerce, Jake leads our partnership and distribution efforts with a focus on direct-to-consumer distribution channels.

An avid cook, he can be found throughout the Rockies with a cast iron skillet in hand and a campfire close by.

His desire to bring a new way for lighting fires grew out of a brutal camping trip where we forgot the lighter and the entire group had a cold dinner.
