I'm so sorry to hear about the layoffs at Cloudflare. Layoffs are a jarring experience and takes time to process and recover from. Thank you for sharing the perspective on both sides.

If you have any design ops teams members ready for a new role or who want to chat generally, I just opened one up for horizontal ops programming at Mercury.

Wishing you and your team well

Thank you for the support. I do have a couple folks in need to start the search. Let me connect them with you on Monday. I want to give them some time to process. But overall let me know what specific roles are there as my ops all have different strength. Thank YOU.

Hi, this is the role I'm hiring for: https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/mercury/jobs/5987513004

I'm a team of one in design ops, but part of a strategic ops team made up of strat ops, product ops and research ops. I'm looking for someone who is comfortable at a smaller company going through a lot of growth.

The role will focus on the product design org and I'm looking for someone with experience in areas like building external presence, onsites and rituals, knowledge management, onboarding, learning and development. It may delve into broader design tracking. Overall horizontal team programs vs product delivery focused.

I have a one of my teammates would be a good fit. Can I give out your email to make an intro? I also dont know if my teammate is ready to jump in the pool yet. But a conversation doesn't hurt.

Happy to chat if they'd find it helpful even if they're not looking. Do you have my email through substack?
