Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolWill Fuqua is a hands-on Head of Engineering with 15 years of experience leading teams and shipping production software from Bangkok. He combines deep engineering chops in C#, Rust, and Clojure with a talent for removing team bottlenecks, mentoring engineers, and institutionalizing improvements so problems don’t recur. At Jetabroad he progressed from Principal Developer to Head of Engineering, driving delivery and developer productivity across the stack while still contributing code. An active open-source contributor, he has worked on notable projects like Microsoft Terminal and maintains tools such as a C# REPL that speed up developer feedback loops. He’s equally comfortable designing infrastructure and debugging stubborn compiler errors—if it has a compiler, he’s probably seen its complaints.
