I’m interested in angel investing in any early-stage startups where developers are the primary user.
With the Console newsletter audience of >30k experienced developers, the most specific thing I bring is helping reach early users. I also have experience building early engineering teams and what is needed to build a good developer experience.
What I invest in
Anything where developers are the primary user – cloud, devtools, APIs, devops, security, SaaS, open source. I apply the Console selection criteria to my own investing criteria and typically invest $10-25k. I invest globally, although most of my investments are in the US.
