Technical Leader with 10+ years of experience growing engineering teams, launching high profile projects, managing large budgets, and mentoring

I have held pretty much every role as a Rails developer. I started off as a software engineer and consultant for a web development company. I co-founded a couple of start-ups and took on the CTO role. Joined a few established companies as a lead dev or architect. And most recently I joined a startup as the VP of Engineering.
I have also been a community leader, co-organizing the AustinRB and Austin on Rails meetups.
My specialty is helping engineering teams establish the appropriate processes to be productive and efficient, and helping even seasoned engineers learn things they didn't know about Ruby and Ruby on Rails.
