Back-End developer in South Africa (UTC+2)

I'm an experienced leader and senior engineer with over 17 years experience. Iโ€™ve walked the full journey from startup to acquisition and beyond. Iโ€™m looking for a leadership/lead position in an open and collaborative environment. I have a long history working with web technologies as an individual contributor and team lead. I earned my manager stripes working at GoDaddy, and have an entrepreneurial streak having created a number of products and services from scratch to revenue (as well as a few notable failures). I like taking initiative and being involved in all aspects of producing great products that customers love. In the past Iโ€™ve been involved in starting and running a number of developer groups, and was involved in helping to organise the first Ruby conference in Cape Town, South Africa (RubyFuZa). My core values include agency, transparency, empathy and respect. I believe in being available to people, and enabling them in whatever way I can.
