Phil Eaton

Hey! I'm Phil (he/him). In the past I've been a developer, a manager, and a cofounder. Today I'm a staff engineer working on Postgres products at EnterpriseDB.

I am a college dropout (not by choice; stay in school!) and for the last 10 years I've chased my way down the software stack starting from humble beginnings with the venerable jQuery and PHP.

I run the NYC Systems Coffee Club, co-run the NYC Systems talk series, run an online Software Internals Book Club, and I run a Software Internals Discord that has in particular become a home for database and distributed systems developers.

I absolutely love to meet people. If you ever want to catch up, here's a little page to help me out with scheduling.
