I’m a software product manager, designer, and sometimes front-end developer. I’m passionate about creating simple, humane, and inclusive experiences, and creating the teams and processes that make that possible.
I led the product function at Aclaimant, and previously had roles at IBM Watson Health, Trunk Club, and a variety of digital agencies. I’ve worked at nearly every level of the stack, from UI design to front-end development to product management and strategy.
Shape Up was my first thought too. I just left a team where I introduced cycles of six weeks of feature development and two weeks of bug fixing, tech debt, and anything else the developers decided to tackle.
It depends on the stage and size of your team and company of course, but for us the result was more predictable delivery and happier, more-engaged developers.
Our official code is hosted by American Legal Publishing [1], but it's so bad that I decided to download a copy and try hosting my own.
After I was elected to our village council I started to notice the similarities between legal code and computer code – large amounts of plain text, formatting, and change management.
I ended up using Markdown with some special CSS styling, and the site is generated by Jekyll and hosted on GitHub Pages. BBEdit and regex was a huge help to whip it into shape.
You are welcome to use anything I've done [2]. I would love to see more people doing the same.
