About
I manage engineers, which mostly means I remove obstacles and then get out of the way. I still write code on Fridays because I never want to be the manager who forgot what the work actually feels like. The moment you stop feeling the pain of a slow build, you stop fixing it. My team builds tools for other developers, which is a brutally honest audience. They'll tell you in one sentence if something is bad, and they're usually right. I've learned to treat that bluntness as a gift rather than a criticism, and it's made everything we ship sharper.
