Oh, hey there! I work at Tailwind.

Thought I'd give you a sense of why it's awesome here.

On a given day you might pair with a teammate on architecting a system to mine interesting insights from millions of hashtags and user interactions.

On another day you might send a few PRs over to our rollback script in light of a recent mishap. (cough)

Or you'll have a video chat with a user to get feedback on the software that you're writing. Really digging in to understand their problems and ways that you might break down barriers.

Or you'll chat with a teammate about the many advantages of unidirectional data flow on the front-end (Do I sound biased? Ok fine I'm biased)

Or you'll explain to the team why some crazy idea that you have might just work.

Or something else! We want you to bring new things to the table!

Anywho, if any of that sounds cool, or you'd just like to chat, you can always shoot me a line at frankie AT tailwindapp DOT com

cheers
