What Now?
Hiya 👋
I'm Tom, and I'm an engineer on the darkest timeline, chasing marketing highs in startup land.
Crafting great marketing materials is very interesting to do as a former engineer. Due to my background, I have a special knack for technical product marketing–which means I help deeply technical founders tell stories about the technology they're building.
I'm currently the Chief Marketing Officer at OpenOps. It's a good way to spend my days, and I'm grateful that I get to do this for a living.
I've also spent a non-insignificant amount of time as a GTM engineer (before it was cool), Head of Developer Relations, and deep in the weeds of distributed systems as a software developer and SRE.
I live in Amsterdam with my wife, Maya, our daughter, Shai, and Salsa - who looks like a dog, but in fact is a human in canine form.
