My #1 Differentiator:

Inner Source Software Expert
{
-    What is Inner Source?
+    "The application of Open Source best practices and culture from inside a company's firewall."
}

Where I sold and implemented Inner Source:

  • Red Hat Inc - I led Red Hats Open Source Enablement consulting solution, which brought in >$500k of revenue and encouraged enterprises toward collaborative code reuse
  • Inner Source Commons - I currently contribute-to and help lead this consortium started by Paypal, Nokia, Autodesk, Bosch, etc to spread the word of collaborative software development
  • US DoD - The US Navy employed me to lead a program-wide Inner Source initiative aimed at breaking silos and encouraging code reuse. I sold and implemented the engagement.
  • Big Banks - Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan Chase, Capital One, BBVA, and Banco Santander each had me lead open source workshops to influence change in their software mindset
