Ian's Resume

Ian

Field Engineer

Nationality United States

Summary

These days I'm thinking a lot about AI - how it applies to my own work and to my customers. In general, as a Sales Engineer, I’m the guy who makes sure big enterprises see value in (and want to buy) all the beautiful code that developers write. And sometimes I help product and engineering teams see that the market wants something different than what they’re building.
