Bio
Steve Dake
Angus is a fearless rockstar Open Source Engineer who delivers dramatic impact through his contributions. He takes broad direction and turns that direction into reality. An example of this was that I asked Angus to sort out how to get OpenStack Heat and OpenStack Ceilometer to integrate together. In six months, Angus became Core to the OpenStack Ceilometer project, managed to get that community through his own participation to dramatically increase their project scope, and did much of the heavy lifting of writing the implementation that eventually became integration between OpenStack Heat and OpenStack Ceilometer. Angus worked a miracle that few, if any, engineers could have handled. Many Engineers have quirky personalities and are challenging to work with. Angus on the other hand is real, approachable, friendly, has great stress management skills, nearly perfect conflict management skills, a can-do attitude and most importantly never gives up. Angus is _the_ Engineer you want on your team if you have Mission-Impossible objectives relating to Open Source programs. You would be making a mistake if you didn't give him the hardest Open Source problems to solve in your organization.
