"Rockset is like magic. Holy carp making query lambdas and then using them on the server is so much easier than Mongo. True story. This is my first time in here. My coworker made our previous query lambda. I'm sold now! It's soooo fast!"
Customer love notes keep me going. It is like the wind beneath my wings. I helped build query lambdas and I am so proud of the work we did - the value we created for our customers.
Our users tell us time and again how easy it is for them to get started with our product. And yes, I do a little dance and a fist bump every time I hear that :)
"It’s dead simple"

Also: building our design system and product branding, building company assets and sometimes consulting on our website too. On any given day, it’s not uncommon to do two or more of these. The context switching can be intense and managing time well is a non-negotiable pre-requisite to being successful.
