Friday was my last day at Automattic. Leaving was one of the more-difficult decisions I’ve ever made, but I was ready for a new challenge; regardless, I never thought this day would come. I will dearly miss my former colleagues, and it will take some time to adjust to not being an Automattician.
Since I made my announcement, the question has been, “What’s next?”
Well, I’m beyond excited to announce that I joined Alley Interactive as a Principal Software Developer. Being a VIP Featured Partner, I’ve reviewed and appreciated Alley’s work from Automattic’s side for some time; I’ve also known several of their staff for a few years, and working with them seemed a natural fit.
Not being one to rest, I started at Alley yesterday. 🎉
And we’re so glad to have you 🙂
Congrats man! Do great things, as always.
Congratulations.
Congrats, Erick and best of luck! I’ll miss having you around Automattic!
Congrats, Erick! Glad that you’re landing somewhere with familiar faces!
That is fantastic, Erick! The folks there are great and I couldn’t think of a better place.
Congrats, Erick – best of luck! 🙂
Congratulations, Erick! That’s an awesome new crew you have, I can’t wait to see what you all build together!
❤️ for what’s next.
Fantastic, best of luck with the new gig! <3
Wishing you only the best on your new Journey Erick!
