• What great developer experience means to him – focused on making deployments super simple by streamlining infrastructure and common tasks.

• Core value of Nadrama – developers just want to deploy apps; Nadrama abstracts away infrastructure pain.

• His view on what being truly open source means (including using the Apache 2.0 license)
