“I worked with Eric at Sourcegraph for over 2 years, and during that time he has completely redefined my perspective on what it means to be a high performance engineer. Not only was Eric leading the code intelligence effort at Sourcegraph, building massive scale data platforms in a super complicated and resourced constrained on-prem environment, and helping to establish new industry wide standards in SCIP - he was moonlighting as a jack of all trades and solving some of the most painful customer facing problems we encountered. Notably as one of his many customer saving heroic side hustles, Eric built an entire new solution for data migrations in our on-premise product so that customers could upgrade seamlessly from certifiably ancient versions of Sourcegraph to the most recent version in a single attempt. It solved existential problems for our user base, and perhaps unintentionally established a new paradigm for how to handle difficult on-premise migrations for the entire software industry for years to come. He also did it in a time frame that nobody thought possible - a routine afternoon for Eric. Eric is the ultimate team player, ultra-high performance engineer. He takes incredibly nuanced and challenging problems, and builds extremely robust and innovative solutions in record time. Working with him is an absolute delight, and I can safely say I learned an incredible amount from him.”
