The Challenge

At a previous company, our release process was broken:

  • 4 long-lived branches — dev, staging, UAT, production
  • Human error — wrong commits shipped, hotfixes lost between branches
  • No automation — manual cherry-picks, merge conflict roulette
6+
hrs/week lost per developer

Everything Engineered

I proposed a single-branch strategy with feature flags and environment-based configuration.

It took 1.5 years of advocacy — RFCs, proof-of-concepts, and persistent conversations with leadership.

The hardest part wasn't the code. It was changing minds.

A good engineer writes code that works.
A great engineer builds systems that make the
whole team better.

Why Sitemate

Everything Engineered — I default to systems thinking
Fast Tracked — I ship incrementally and move fast
High Vis — I communicate openly and lead by example

“Multiply the engineering power of the built world” — that's a mission I want to build for.
