Hi, I’m Dr. Amanda Martin

I’m a technical operator working at the CTO and COO intersection. I build and scale open source and network ecosystems through strong governance, reliable systems, and clear operating cadence.

What I do

• Lead cross functional delivery across engineering, product, operations, and governance
• Turn ambiguity into operating systems: processes, metrics, incident response, and tooling
• Build automation and platforms that improve reliability, compliance, and adoption

Current focus

• Distributed systems and network operations
• Governance design and execution for technical communities
• Developer experience: docs, automation, and tooling
• Metrics and transparency: dashboards, reporting, and decision logs

How I help

• 0 to 1 operational setup: cadence, roles, decision making, and reporting
• Scaling delivery: roadmap execution, cross team alignment, and risk management
• Architecture and systems reviews focused on reliability and maintainability
• Community and ecosystem growth with measurable outcomes
