A change is due and my time has finally come. After several years at Homestead, I’m setting sails onward. Following Labor Day I’ll be working for Joyent. The gig has a lot to offer, including the fact that I’ll be working full time on putting OpenSolaris to work in production. That means that projects that are currently a sideline activity for me will become of full time importance and I’ll be able to spend more time contributing in general.
I think this will be a very positive thing for Joyent as well. They are the biggest public organization running OpenSolaris in production, and with me on board they’ll also have an employee with a large public involvment in the project as a whole, which will only increase the possible impact that both I and Joyent can have. Sadly, I’m not crystal clear on what I can and can’t say about what I’ll be working on, but its right up my line. Hopefully you’ll see lots of trickle down from my work there in this blog.
Joyent has a bunch of other advantages that excite me. For one, the company is small and nimble. They have 2 of the Ruby on Rails core developers on staff, and are 100% behind Ruby, which is a language that I’m using more and more all the time. But the company also has
a great family feel to it. I’m heading up to Joyent CEO David Young’s house in Marin for Labor Day to a BBQ with his family and some other Joyent employees. When we were sorting out the schedualing he asked if the timing would conflict with my kids naps… that might seem like a little thing to most people, but as a family man, that really says something special to me.
So, I’m working my last week with Homestead this week, which means they’re gonna work me to the bone finishing up long term projects and then next week I’ll be learning the ropes at Joyent, so expect things to be a little quieter around here in the next couple days. I also figure that after I’m on board I’ll probly be moving cuddletech from 1and1 to TextDrive, which will give me a lot of focus on what I’ll be doing, since I’ll be a customer myself and will motivate me to do whats best by all considered.
I just want to say congratulations on the new job. It is awesome that you are getting the chance to work on things you love. Good luck!
congratulations ben… this is great news (for both you, and for joyent)!
I just wanted to say: congratulations on the new job! Joyent is one of my favourite companies, and it’s great to see such motivated and knowledgable people such as yourself on board.
Congratulations, Ben! Good luck at Joyent, and I look forward to seeing what good things they come up with.
Did the “Want to buy servers directly from Sun” situation ever get resolved, as detailed in http://joyeur.com/2006/03/20/the-sun-doesnt-shine-on-me ?
Bill: yes it did.
wow. nice work! hope it goes well.
Welcome aboard Ben, Looking forward to rockin even harder here with you around.
Sweet – great news, congrats Ben!
Congratulations. Has to be a better gig than at a place where they won’t even let you surf in to their home page if you don’t run IE or Mozilla…. (*cough*homestead*cough*)
Congratulations.
Is this the company that moved from Linux to OpenSolaris under T{12}000s?
Congratulations on the new position. Given that you’re one of the major OpenSolaris evangelists out there, it’s nice to see that you’ll be getting to work with it day-to-day.
Congratulations, dude! Well done. You and Joyent sound like a perfect fit. It will be interesting to see what comes out of Joyent in the next while.
Congrats, Ben. Good luck with Joyent and hope it works out well for you!
Congratulations! I am looking forward to hearing of your experiences.
Awesome news … best of luck in the new role and can’t wait to hear more details about what you’ll be working on.
Congrats and good luck.
Keep us posted on how things go and how OpenSolaris, Joyent, Ruby, and the world of Web 2.0 affect storage, demands, etc. like you always do.
For the few of us on the East Coast who will probably never see the latest advances in tech or only our vendors (EMC, NetApp, IBM, etc) get to “play” with the toys, we live our tech lives through you.
I’ve been a big fan of Joyeur and TextDrive’s blogs, and they have been helpful in the past too.
Congratulations, Ben, on your move to Joyent. It will be great to see what such creative and passionate people will bring to the table.
Congratualtions!!!
Good luck Ben!
Congrats, Ben. How are you liking the new gig so far? Hopefully the honeymoon period will last for at least 6 months. I’m sure you will kick butt – I hope you enjoy the role, too. Take care, ClaireG
