About

I believe the best way to lead is to build. I am an engineer at heart. I used to obsess over code, but now I obsess over systems. Today, I split my time between building software for clients and sharing engineering management tips for the next generation. ๐Ÿ’ป ๐Ž๐‚๐“๐€ ๐‹๐€๐๐’ I co-founded Octa Labs to solve a specific problem. Founders need more than just "coders." They need product partners. My team and I build scalable software for startups. We bring the high standards of ServiceTitan to fast-moving startups. ๐Ÿ“˜ ๐ƒ๐€๐•๐ˆ๐ƒ'๐’ ๐๐‹๐”๐„๐๐‘๐ˆ๐๐“ I write davidsblueprint.com for engineers who want to think like founders.
