I've built dozens of successful engineering teams. Follow me for tweets on hiring, managing, and unlocking the talent of amazing engineers.

Managing early career engineers is not the same as managing Sr. engineers. Early career engs need so much more & much tighter direction, mentorship, feedback and Q&A. Much of it at a very low level. Sr. Eng need prioritization, alignment and setting expectations at a high level.

Hi Everyone!

I've just finished up some commitments and I'm now looking for contract work and also open to full time opportunities as an engineering leader (manager, director, VPE, etc).

Please get in touch if I can help you or your company.

[Matt Nunogawa @amattn]

Also validate and align technical output with business goals. I can help your team do the all above and more.

Thanks!

[Matt Nunogawa @amattn]

Alternatively, I'd love your help if you could share this so I can get in front of other people who may need an experienced engineering leader.

I've helped lead and train engineers and managers to develop and retain talent, ship product, achieve hiring goals...

ChatGPT'ing yourself is the new googling yourself:

@rmcastil @elgato screen capture.
partial window screen capture then do OCR on the content and put the results in copy paste buffer.
global mic mute.
hide everything but open all the apps/music/etc. I use to focus work.
keyboard shortcuts I can't remember usually get a slot.

good advice for anyone of any level, not just engineers.

This week I wrote up a short guide for our engineering teams titled “how to ask for help”.

This may seem obvious. It’s not.

Here’s a quick thread with the key components:

@mijustin There’s an old naval saying, "Always Open, Never Uncertain". The gist is that your journey has a destination, but you have to be open to how you get there. And to some degree, what your destination is.

@punchlinecopy Lol. It was right there in front of me.

[Matt Nunogawa @amattn]

@punchlinecopy I think you mean the depotductive cycle.

[Matt Nunogawa @amattn]

@punchlinecopy Not sure about the design part, but most major card manuf. have custom options: https://t.co/w1SfLeFyEd

Those are usually the best choices if you actually want to play card games with them…

My favorite web framework and it's not particularly close. I'll be spinning up a new project with this soon!

[Chris McCord @chris_mccord]

Phoenix 1.7.0-rc.0 is out! So much good stuff in this release – @tailwindcss by default, HTML-aware component system with compile-time checks, verified routes, and more!

@mjwhansen As a manager, I encourage my people do to this. not only for the pick me ups, but it’s invaluable during reviews.

@amattn @kbclip_app Anything that makes @SlackHQ better is a good thing. 🙏

[Matt Nunogawa @amattn]

@zrail Awk, (and sed, grep and really shell scripting in general) is a kind of superpower.

I can’t count the number of things I’ve automated in work and life with those tools.

[Matt Nunogawa @amattn]

Thanks @typeoneerror! Notion integration is in beta and I can't wait to roll it out!

[Matt Nunogawa @amattn]

@coreyhainesco @kbclip_app Thanks Corey!

[Matt Nunogawa @amattn]

My Slack app, @kbclip_app , just launched on Product Hunt!

It instantly generates rough docs, FAQs, notes and more from your natural Slack conversations.

It’s perfect for people who don’t have a lot of time to make documentation.

Please give it a look!
