I'm a Software Engineer, Teacher, and Developer Advocate working to support the growth of open source technologies and digital public goods for digital transformation efforts and social impact. With progressive IT, web engineering, data, developer relations, technical documentation/writing, open source, embedded systems, and community/programs management experience in for-profit startups and non-profit technology and education organizations, I have spent the past years writing code for stuff that runs on the web, educating developers, helping different dev-tool startups connect and sustain profitable relationships with their ideal developer and customer profiles, and building open source/developer communities. Being able to solve problems systematically and efficiently is my greatest strength. Using a hands-on technical approach paired with strong communication and management skills, I collaborate with people, establish and lead teams, professionally develop support, enhance operations, and manage information systems, communities, and solutions. I'm very passionate about educating people about technology and helping developers become better at what they do. I do this by writing technical articles on my blog (blog.bolajiayodeji.com), running a bi-weekly newsletter (bawd.bolajiayodeji.com), building open-source projects/learning materials (https://github.com/bolajiayodeji), speaking at developer events, organizing developer conferences/summits, and building technical communities.
