Bio
Spencer Goossens
Ted brings his whole self to work every day. He is extremely thoughtful and can dissect a complicated problem, turning it into manageable prices. He excels at architecting sound and scalable solutions and would be an asset to any team. I had the privilege of working with Ted on multiple occasions. Not only did he deliver on time, he also helped buoy those around him, sharing his knowledge of the task at hand. Given the opportunity, I’d love to work with Ted again!

Ted and I were on same team at Shopify / 6 River Systems, which gave me the opportunity to work closely with him. He is excellent engineer, one of the best I've worked with in my multiple decades in software engineering. He's also a great teacher, and was crucial in helping me learn the software stack when I joined the company. I can't thank him enough for the hours he spent with me, patiently explaining the subtleties of the complex systems we were responsible for. Finally, In addition to his skills as an engineer and a mentor, Ted took the lead in organizing team activities and games, something I appreciated greatly in a remote team.
