Background

About Brad O.

I've been working on back-end, middle-tier and front-end systems since I've tackled many tough problems around scaling an application, refactoring complex systems, and building from the ground up. I prefer to build software for people (first) and typically out of necessity. As for leading a project, I'm a long-time student of Agile and Lean methodologies. Learning through carefully crafted experiments, always comes first. I focus on determining which features to build and also which features NOT to build by enforcing a tight customer feedback loop. Iterating quickly and validating the most valuable features first is paramount. Also, communication is the most underrated team skill, so I strive to improve that with every team that i work with, as it's one of my specialties. I'm always looking for talented, passionate people to work with on challenging problems, that enjoy working hard to make it happen.
