Consulting
I am available for consulting engagements from time to time. I am best able to help companies with:
- Product and go-to-market strategy
- Early-stage founder/CEO coaching
- Open source strategy
If you’re interested in working together, please reach out.
Advising
I sometimes have time to help founders with their companies and products.
I am most useful on customer segmentation, high level product and market strategy, authenticity throughout your product and story, and founder team dynamics.
I am most interested in redistribution and decentralization (but not the blockchain), worker dignity, future of work, and power tools and automation.
You can see some of the companies I have worked with on AngelList.
If you’re interested, please reach out.
About
I’m a tech founder and recovering SysAdmin. I helped found DevOps and grew up in open source. These days I am convalescing from a decade of physical and mental neglect while running Puppet.
I sometimes write about startups, founders, and other topics I like.
I am an angel investor, mostly in areas of expertise (infrastructure and dev tools) and interest (local first software and power tools).
