Bio
Paul Merlyn
Long is a fantastic lead engineer -- the best I've ever encountered. His knowledge is vast in both breadth and depth -- front-end, back-end, functional and performance testing, architecture and design, and on and on. His ability to implement high-quality code is inconceivably quick, making his productivity off-the-charts faster than most developers'. On top of that, Long epitomizes the very best traits of a lead developer. Specifically, he's always supportive of the engineers in his team, working with each to motivate and inspire and thereby getting the very best results from everyone. He is also strong enough to speak up when an engineering manager is pushing the project or the team in a sub-optimal direction. In this way, he skillfully uses humor, a light touch, and the power of reason (backed by the aforementioned reservoir of knowledge) to keep even the most complex and high-pressure projects on track. And all this while being likable and without ego. Long may indeed have flaws, but I never found any. If I were building an engineering team, he'd be first on my team sheet.
