Whew, took me a little while to get back to y’all, but I’m so excited to announce my next chapter: taming software deployment through my new company, Miren! It’s gonna be a big project, so I’m thrilled to start with support from BlueYard Capital and Union Square Ventures, enabling us to bring human-centric workflows to a complex domain.

<taps mic> Hey everyone, I’ve got some exciting news to share! After years of dealing with janky dev setups, broken tests, and brittle deployment platforms, I’ve decided to do something about it. We’re calling it Miren, and the vision is to rethink how software is developed, deployed, and managed.</taps>
👋🏻 Hi friends
Do you have any finite contract work that I could do? (nights and weekends)
——
#Ruby #Rails #StimulusJS, HTML/CSS.
Code cleanup, pairing, CI or Heroku setup, admin tooling, eng team mentorship, …
So I’ve been enjoying freelance life for a full year now: working only with people I heartily enjoy, on projects I find enormously exciting.
Which is why I’m so psyched to tell you about what has finally tempted me to commit to a more lasting thing:
On the heels of our incredible event in the Swiss Alps last June, @paulca, @eamonleonard, and I have formed a non-profit to sustainably support This Next Thing.
I’m delighted to join as its inaugural Executive Director!
Can’t pass up a trip to see Ruby friends in San Diego so I’m headed back to RubyConf this year!
Hope to see you there!
