“Tyler is one of the most talented software engineers I've ever worked with. His attention to detail is unrivaled. I've managed Tyler directly for about a year and a half now, and since then I've learned that when I send a project (however large) his way, I can trust it's in good hands. He's the type of engineer who will, without being asked, put together detailed project specs before starting work; working through all the details of larger projects, and getting buy-in from the rest of the team before starting. He's also incredibly thoughtful when it comes to helping out the rest of the team; Tyler is the go-to person for architectural questions, or tricky technical problems. I can't begin to count the number of times he's stepped in to help solve a previously blocking issue for the team. One thing that I've come to really love about working with Tyler is that he's really proven himself to be a person who values the whole over the individual. He's always willing to spend time mentoring less experienced developers, and help spec out work with other people to make sure that the level of quality within our codebases stays high. He also manages to do this without sacrificing his own projects; he gets his work done on time consistently. Tyler is also fantastic on code reviews. This is where his Ruby expertise really shines. He'll point out little tips and tricks, be it for performance, or for simply improving the overall simplicity and readability of our code. He's always thorough when reviewing pull requests; providing feedback in a constructive way that winds up being a great teaching tool for everyone else on the team. I recently promoted Tyler to the very first Principal Engineer we've ever had at Automated Insights. He also stepped into the Technical Lead role at that time for my team, working on our flagship product, Wordsmith. He's transitioned into this new role seamlessly; becoming the point person for architectural challenges not only related to his own work, but also for the work of others. I would be honored to work with Tyler again, and would recommend him highly to anyone who might be considering him for a role.”

I’ve been building some greenfield software lately, and it’s exhilarating. Most engineers rarely get to build end-to-end. At work, we often inherit, maintain, and optimize things we didn’t create. But when you take something from idea to implementation, you learn fast. The ownership, the clarity, and the momentum, next level stuff! So my pitch is: Just build something. Not a tutorial. Not a clone. Something real. Something that matters. Something yours. It’ll change how you think.

In the months leading up to the closing of InVision, I built a bulk export workflow for the V6 cloud product. This provided a way for users to export Prototypes and Boards as ZIP files (complete with both data and image files) for archival purposes. The ZIP files are designed to be consumed directly from the user's local file system. Which means, these ZIP files can also be used to host static sites on public URLs. As a final gesture of good will, I wanted to demonstrate (VIDEO) how InVision V6 users can upload those ZIP files—FOR FREE—to Cloudflare Pages. It's so freakin' easy - you don't even have to unzip the files (Cloudflare does that for you). Read more: https://bennadel.com/4749

Developers: Are you your team’s silent safety net? Every dev team has that one engineer The one who stays late fixing broken scripts. Reviews everyone’s pull requests. Debugs someone else’s code at 9PM. The unspoken catcher of all things dropped. But here’s the harsh truth: If you’re constantly doing their job… who’s doing yours? 🚨 Helping too much can hurt your growth. You’ll miss your own deliverables, delay feature launches, and even get overlooked in performance reviews all while untangling someone else’s tech debt. 🚫 You might be propping up bad practices. If others rely on you to fix their bugs, it hides deeper problems. Sometimes, they even get rewarded for work you quietly finished. 📉 You’re unknowingly weakening the team. If delivery depends on a hidden hero, you’re building a fragile culture ,not just fragile code. ✅ A better way? • Make your contributions visible. • Advocate clean processes. • Promote code ownership and accountability. And when someone falls short .let the system respond. They’ll either level up, or step aside. 💡 In tech, silent heroics don’t scale. Clarity and accountability do. Don’t just cover , contribute with visibility. #SoftwareEngineering #TeamCulture #Leadership #DevTips #CodeOwnership #EngineeringExcellence
