Recent Work
Sentry
2020—

Sentry is an application performance and error
monitoring company that started life in 2008 as a
tiny open-source side project and is now a
proper unicorn. I run the Open Source Program
Office (OSPO) as Head of Open Source, keeping the company true
to its roots. |
Proofpoint
2019—2020
|
I was an Engineering Manager for two diverse and
productive teams at an enterprise security company. |
Idelic
2018
|
As Engineering Lead at a venture-backed startup
(employee four), I shifted the engineering team from
off-shore contractors to in-house employees, while
contributing actively to product development and driving
engineering process improvements. |
Gratipay
2012—2017
|
I founded a company that moved more than $1 million
from dozens of companies to hundreds of open source
projects, and explored the limits of organizational
transparency and openness. Gratipay is
survived by a fork, Liberapay. Vive
Liberapay! |
