Rachel J Graves@rachel@tech.lgbt

Hey peeps! I am looking for a new full-time role as a Senior Product Engineer or Tech Lead, specialising in Ruby on Rails.

For the past couple of years, I have been building Cammi — a set of tools designed to help people who are neurodivergent get unstuck and work toward things that really matter to them. Now that it has launched and can continue in the background, I am ready to bring everything I have learned back into a collaborative product team. I have written more about that decision on my blog, linked in the comments.

I love being close to the product: speaking to users, doing discovery, helping teams identify the most valuable problems, and then writing great code to solve them.

While at Florence, I had the opportunity to lead discovery, empower my team to do the same, and focus our engineering effort on the most impactful work. I would love to find a role where I can work in that way again.

@veganstraightedge fun research though, I’ve been meaning to do more classification of packages using github.com/ecosyste-ms/oss-tax to aid discovery

@andrewnez ooh! The setup-uv major version bump due to the caching change is possibly good addition to include!
