The engineers behind the platforms you ship on.

Go Topo is led by a former ShipStation Principal Engineer and a systems engineer with 18 years of platform work. Every engagement is run end to end by a principal: no account managers, no offshore hand-offs, no junior implementers figuring it out as they go.

Pierce Harmon, Founder of Go Topo

Pierce Harmon

Founder & Principal

Pierce leads Go Topo as founder and principal. He served as a Principal Software Engineer at Auctane, where he led the go-to-market team for the ShipEngine API. He has held engineering leadership roles across startup and enterprise teams. He works directly with every Go Topo client; the consulting practice exists because the same operational problems keep showing up across DTC, CPG, and 3PL brands, and the people who can fix them at the platform level are scarce.

30-minute call. No prep. We look at your stack and where margin is leaking.

  • No prep needed. We'll ask about your operation
  • We look at your actual stack (Shopify, ShipStation, NetSuite)
  • You leave with concrete ideas, not a pitch

The audit must find margin worth 3x its fee in year one. If it can't, we refund it and tell you not to hire us.
