Hi! I'm Paul Dowman, a software developer from Toronto, Canada. I build great software and I manage software development teams.

I'm an experienced start-up technical lead, the creator of some popular open-source software, a father, and an all-around nice guy.

I can probably help you with Ruby or JavaScript software development, deployment, and operations, web app performance & scalability and agile software development and management. Give me a problem to solve!
