Senior🎓
Top SchoolRob Myers is a Principal Instructor and Coach with over two decades of hands-on experience helping software teams deliver high-quality, sustainable products through Agile, TDD, BDD, Kanban, and ensemble programming practices. He designs and teaches immersive, language-agnostic courses—most notably Essential Test-Driven Development and Advanced CSD—that combine clear analogies, fun labs, and real-world lessons from global engagements. Rob has led transformations and training at organizations including Salesforce.com, Vanguard, Alaska Airlines and Microsoft, and has a knack for turning chaotic cross-team change into practical, repeatable practices. His "Doubly Extreme Agile" approach blends Kanban, mob programming, and BDD/TDD into a pragmatic whole-team method born from empirical client work. Based in Santa Rosa, CA, he pairs deep technical discipline with a coach’s empathy to create sane work environments where teams both enjoy their careers and produce measurable customer value. Colleagues often note his rare ability to expand others’ capabilities simply by teaching—earning him a reputation as a “ninja” of practical Agile craft.
