Paul Dowman

I help lead engineering 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 engineering at scale, the business of technology, ecommerce, and blockchain tech. 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.
