Formed "01x" to help remote start-ups build products from 0 to 1 with a technical design partner.

Three key areas I can help with:

• Software Design

• Technical Marketing

• Remote Collaboration

I started contributing to GitLab to learn if remote work works. Instead, I ran into an incredible community and an infinite source of inspiration on how to work and scale a remote team.

• Contributing to GitLab and the design system behind GitLab since December 2017.

• Helping grow the GitLab community and improve triage operations for community contributions.

• Collaborating with dozens of product designers and frontend engineers across different time zones.

Some notable things that happened during the time above:

• Won two GitLab MVP awards.

• Ranked first in all-time contributions to GitLab for two consecutive years.

• Listed as a GitLab top annual contributor every year since 2018.

• Joined as the founding product designer to shape the design language of the product[1].

• Created the foundations of the design system[2] behind the product and improved developer handoffs.

• Shaped the remote culture[3] with a strong bias towards asynchronous communication.

• Towards the last 6 months at Gitpod, I worked on go-to-market efforts, including launching a monthly newsletter about developer experience, redesigning the pitch deck, introducing on-demand webinars, publishing blog posts, improving user onboarding, and redefining the product changelog process.

In essence, how we work is more important than where we work, and just as important as the work we are doing. [...]
