I'm Ben Balter, and I write here about developer platforms, product and engineering leadership, open source, and showing your work. I spent over a decade building developer platforms at GitHub. For five years I was a product manager for trust and safety, shipping 500+ features and the API endpoints behind them to 50M+ developers. I also led a bottom-up rewrite of GitHub Pages and wrote the open source library behind GitHub's license detection, and my open source projects have hundreds of millions of downloads. I wrote Open and Async, the playbook for remote and distributed teams, and shipped a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server alongside it so agents can query it directly. More about the author
