I had the chance to work with Armon as a contractor at HashiCorp when I was in college. Armon was absolutely one of the most down-to-earth leaders I've ever seen. Even though he was technically brilliant and I was only an undergrad, he never made me feel like I was stupid or inexperienced, but rather patiently guided me towards the best solutions, so I was able to gain a lot of confidence and grow a lot along the way.
If you are an aspiring distributed systems engineer (as I was), I highly recommend applying to HashiCorp. They are solving some of the most fun challenges in distributed systems and they have a great engineering culture, not to mention that they are remote-friendly.

- dlevine 7y agoOne time quite a while ago, I randomly hung out with the Kiip team one day when there were like 6 of them. Mitchell struck me as a super nice guy, and at some point he randomly dropped the fact at some point that he wrote Vagrant. I'm glad that they have done so well.
- loeg 7y agoI went to college with Armon and highly enjoyed working with him. I've never been associated with Hashicorp and can't speak to his leadership there, but as a human being he's fantastic. And it seems like Hashicorp is doing well.

- atonse 7y agoI've never met any of them but the culture just seems fantastic from the outside. Glad to see it isn't a facade.
