I recently became our Developer Evangelist. In this role, my goal is to make the best developers in the world want to work with us. I constantly encourage developers to come out to the many events that we host.

In fact, we’ve got a lot of great things coming up:

• This Wednesday, Jan. 30, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., visit us at the Georgia Tech College of Computing Spring Career Fair.

• This Friday, Feb. 1, at 2 p.m., see Brian Gardner talk about Rails Engines at our weekly Tech Talk.

• Feb. 11, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m., join us at our monthly Hack Night for dinner and the chance to work with other developers on fun side projects.

If you want to find out more about Big Nerd Ranch, especially if you are considering working with us, these events are a great way to learn about who we are and what we do. If you are new, let us know, and we’ll make sure you feel welcome!
