Where I create the most value?

I do my best work where I can combine several worlds (and “hats”) at once.

I enjoy talking to developers one hour, customers the next, and founders after lunch. I like understanding products deeply enough to improve them, explaining them well enough that developers want to adopt them, and helping companies build the communities that make products grow organically.

I’m also Polish, so I do like to critisize too :), but I’ve learned how to do it constructively and turn it into a superpower and superfeedback, so it can help more than harm.

That's why roles like Developer Relations, Developer Advocacy, Forward Deployed Engineering, Solution Architecture, Technical Product Leadership or Community Growth all feel surprisingly similar to me.

Wanna talk?

Have you ever wondered if you’re in the right job, company, or even industry? Maybe your excitement has faded, or the Sunday Scaries are hitting harder each week. Feeling stuck, unmotivated, or burned out is more common than you think - and knowing when it’s time to make a change isn’t always easy. In this video, we’ll explore the signs that it might be time to switch roles or companies and how to take that leap with confidence.

Congrats on releasing the book! It's already a huge accomplishment :) Wishing you to reach as many eager architects as possible and to have fun in exploring SA further.

Good to hear that! I didn't think about sharing the sample chapter, but I might do it. Any particular request? :) On the other side, you can reach out for the refund in the first 30 days, so if it won't be good enough for you - I can get the $ back.

And of course I didn't have time to code the landing page myself and builder I used blocks the site on Brave, Firefox and in many ad blockers ha.. Partial info is also at Gumroad: https://thebusyprogrammer.gumroad.com/l/tbpgtsm

I'm not only looking for buyers here, but I'm curious if you think the topic is interesting / important and relevant at all. Or simply we, devs, are completely not interested about it as we already live in the bubble?

Great list, thanks for sharing and gathering! As people said, form to add suggestions would be great. E.g. we're using Umbraco CMS (https://umbraco.com/products/umbraco-cms/) for most of our content managed enterprise solutions and would be awesome to see it listed there. Many many more in my head as well, so might help curating it and growing it for the good of us all looking for OSS alternatives!
