TL, DR

Subscribe to hear takes about software engineering from a software engineer. Because no one has ever done that before right.

Or subscribe to read my posts and then explain to me how wrong I am. That suits me also — just subscribe!

Who are you?

I’m “Andrew Howden” (or andrewhowden.com, or andrewhowdencom. Andy, Andrew, Howden, “You there” or whatever else you prefer to call me)

So far, I’ve worked as a software engineer, systems engineer, site reliability engineer, principal engineer and engineering manager. I’ve worked on a whole range of problems, from implementing a UI design for a small eCommerce company to running a workstream to systematically identify and solve software operations risks for a multi-billion dollar companies ‘CyberWeek’ event.

Through this experience, one of my most critical revelations is that this work is impossible without motivated colleagues who are willing to read and challenge ideas about what software looks like.
