Schuyler Bishop
Senior Director of Platform Engineering @NinjaHoldings
Schuyler started in tech in 1995 by founding an ISP in his parent’s garage using three self-built servers and Slackware on the 1.1.13 kernel. For the next decade and a half he was an individual contributor focusing on Linux and network administration but then realized he was getting boneheaded decisions from above. So Schuyler became a boneheaded leader himself, working to create better systems for engineers to themselves make good decisions.
