It’s easy to get lost in work. We end up spending so much of our time on our work, in the building, and with our co-workers, that it really begins to become a part of our actual life. This is why it is so important to also highlight the activities that people do outside of […]
As Jama grew, our Engineering department began to change overnight. Teams were outputting consistent velocities, we had upped our abilities technically on how we measured areas such as performance and quality, we began 8-week planning cycles, we doubled our Engineering team and we had a strong roadmap to follow but for some reason it didn’t […]
On July 8, 2016 the employees, husbands, wives, boyfriends, girlfriends and children of Jama gathered to celebrate another great year at the annual Jama Birthday Party. (Check out the 8th, 7th, 6th and 5th celebrations!) A summer rain pushed us inside, but our soon-to-be-sub-leased 1st floor made the perfect open space for the bouncy house, […]

Now that all of that left-pad nonsense is behind us, we can get back to focusing on the business of utilizing node modules, or more specifically, how to upgrade our node packages in a safe, verifiable, refactory way (as refactory as Javascript lets us get, anyway). The Problem Recently, I was tasked with bringing our […]

Jama is created for companies developing products with multiple safety-critical, complex subsystems requiring engineering expertise across systems, […]
I was recently a panelist at the C3 Connected Mobility PDXchange event. We discussed everything from autonomous cars, to smart monitors for babies, to the ethics of new technology. It was a great opportunity to learn from a wide range of experts within the mobility space, but what really stood out to me is that […]
In being a SaaS company, we are gradually chipping away at our good old monolith, turning pieces into micro-services that can scale horizontally, and that scale efficiently by use of multi-tenancy. A single micro-service can have multiple instances, and each instance serves a multitude of customers. Multi-tenancy has implications on application state, and a common […]
A few weeks ago I had a friend Grace reach out to me and ask me if I could speak to my experience with the DevOps movement from an engineering management perspective.
