It's Clear to Me (Ramblings of Matt Scilipoti)

Posts My Philosophy Who Am I

Who Am I?

I’m Matt Scilipoti

I code.

I am not just a coder.
I am not a (ninja|rockstar|10xer).
I am a solid Developer, a Software Craftsman.
I strive to explain the intent of my code, to developers that follow.
I am comfortable with, and encourage, DevOps.

I love this stuff.

My Hats

I test. First.
I am agile and pragmatic.
I add to production capacity, for everyone.

I am a perfectly imperfect human.
I can do it alone, but you really want me as a member of a team.
I excel in a team, gaining energy from working with others.
I tend to work harder for those around me, than I do for myself.
I fight to turn isolation into powerful collaboration.
I vow to support my team, if they will let me.
I hope they return that kindness.
