Paul Dowman

I help engineering organizations succeed. I help lead extensibility for the developer platform at Shopify.

I like adventures and I like solving problems. In my 26 year career I have built many products, led software development teams and organizations, led technology at a startup with a successful exit, founded and operated a successful company for almost a decade, and helped lead and scale one of the fastest-growing large engineering organizations in the world at Shopify. I have created popular open source projects, organized conferences with hundreds of people, built two successful training programs, and built trust with all whom I have worked with.

I love to talk about software development at scale, the business of technology, and ecommerce. If you're working on similar things, or have an interesting technology, process, or culture problem/opportunity send me a message and let's talk.
