Benj is a full-stack software engineer with experienced in leading teams and building SaaS products.
Throughout his career Benj has worked with organizations of various sizes delivering measurable business impact and cultivating a positive team culture through mentorship, collaboration, and continuous learning.
You might catch him brainstorming on the next Bodega data viz, launching another browser extension, or building a new CLI tool. He lives in the terminal and has spent an embarrassing amount of time fixing his neovim config.
Off the clock you can find him brewing himself filter coffee, agonizing over chess & word puzzles, zipping around google maps for new places to pin, and training for his next triathlon.
I really enjoyed [Benj's] management style ... he was very attentive to the type of work he assigned to members of the team and tried his best to ensure that tasks were challenging but fulfilling ... he gave us autonomy and let us handle our own projects, which helped keep the team engaged.
Overall I believe his guidance and mentorship pushed me into becoming more curious and capable as a software engineer. He has been a great example of what to expect from future engineering managers.
