Hey there! I'm Kyle. I've built some big systems, built some small systems, worked in big tech (Amazon and Google) and small startups (Karat and ngrok). I most recently led the engineering teams at ngrok, growing up to over 30 folks and four teams. I love coaching/mentoring/cat-herding people _and_ building. After taking the summer off to rest, sharpen my technical and business skills, and vet several ideas, I'm back on the market and ready build cool stuff.

I'm most interested in leading folks (at whatever scale) but also love building the early stages of a company deep in the trenches. My top priority is a great team to learn alongside and deliver something folks really love. My breadth of experiences makes me pretty comfortable learning new languages, technologies, and domains, but my current strengths play well to devops and developer tooling.

Greetings! Director of Eng here at ngrok. Figured I should say something (more of a lurker than I care to admit) since someone mentioned the recruiting side of things ;)

We haven't been bought and haven't taken any capital, but we have made some massive investments into our product: new ways of connecting, new ways of securing, reliability, etc. There are a couple announcements coming soon I don't want to spoil. We've been a quiet crew for a while!

On the recruiting side, we've got tons of openings in product engineering (junior, senior, management, PMs) and across the rest of the company. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have an interest in working with us.
