Working With Me ๐Ÿค

A guide on how I collaborate, communicate, and what to expect.

Why does this doc exist? ๐Ÿค”

Hi there ๐Ÿ‘‹ This guide is a starting point for us to build a strong working relationship. It outlines my preferences and working style, helping us avoid misunderstandings and move faster together.

Think of it as an invitation to open dialogueโ€”Iโ€™m equally interested in learning about your style.

Working Style ๐Ÿ—๏ธ

๐Ÿค Collaborative

I thrive on teamwork and hearing different perspectives. Let's solve problems together!

๐Ÿš€ Action-Oriented

I value quick iterations ("v1.0 is better than perfect"). I'm comfortable with quick hacks to maintain momentum, provided we keep the long-term vision in sight.

๐Ÿ‘ฎ Hands-off Delegation

I set clear expectations, then step back. I trust you to own the "how" while we align on the "what."

๐Ÿงช Experiment-Friendly

I love testing new tech. From Kubernetes and Kafka to ArgoCDโ€”if it improves productivity or reliability, Iโ€™m in.

Meetings & Time ๐Ÿ“…

๐Ÿ—“๏ธ 1:1s

Dedicated time for alignment, feedback, and blockers. No status updatesโ€”let's focus on growth and strategy.

๐Ÿง  Focus / ZEN Time

I block deep-work slots on my calendar. Please respect these times for uninterrupted concentration.

Communication ๐Ÿ“ฑ

๐Ÿ’ฌ Quick updates and async chat. I link threads to maintain context.
๐Ÿ“จ Long-form strategy or structured plans.
๐Ÿ“ž Urgent "production-down" or blockers only.

What I Value ๐Ÿ’ก

  • ๐Ÿš€ Proactivity
    Don't wait for things to break. Raise issues early.
  • ๐ŸŽฏ Ownership
    Lead your tasks independently. Escalate early if you face any blockers.
  • ๐Ÿ’ก Feedback
    Use the 3 Ps (Praise, Problem, Potential).
