Daniel Sauble is part UX designer, part developer, and part researcher. He loves enterprise software start-ups and has worked at companies, including Puppet Labs and Sonatype, on problems encompassing configuration management, repository management, and patch management. Ironically, his first foray into book authorship has nothing to do with any of these. In his off time, he runs, speaks, writes, and spends time with his family. He has learned that there is nothing more painful than the end of an ultramarathon, more nerve-wracking than your first conference talk, or more satisfying than a long writing project. One day, he may be foolish enough to start his own company, but for now is content to hone his product design skills in the midst of start-up culture. Home is the verdant landscape of the Pacific Northwest, but Daniel enjoys a bit of travel now and then. Between travel, family, work projects, and the personality of an INTJ, he doesn’t have much of a social life. He has no illusions that writing a book will change this much. That said, it’s an excellent conversation starter, should the need arise.
