In this blog, Director of Engineering, Alan discusses some of the values and practices that matter most to him, and how he infuses these into his role at YellowDog.
I’d consider myself a technology strategist and engineering leader. I’ve worked on transformative technology projects at the intersection of information, collaboration, and creativity around the globe since 2000. In my time doing this I’ve been up close to some fantastic successes, and some spectacularly dismal failures.
As we are currently in the exciting process of recruiting, it has made me sit back and digest these outcomes and distil the lessons I’ve learnt into a set of core values and practices I can take forward. Things I can look to replicate, learn, and mentor in others.
Full disclosure: it’s still a work in progress.
I’m lucky to work for a company that celebrates everyone’s unique values and gives space for people to express their individuality. This is something that will remain an important anchor, as we continue to grow the team.
