Today, we’re talking to Ed Stephinson who should serve as a shining beacon to those wishing to turn their side hustle into their main hustle. Ed is the Founder of Sailhouse.dev, which he has been building into a thriving startup all while balancing a separate 9-5 job throughout! Hustle is the key word for this episode, as Ed makes sure we know that day-to-day, he loves nothing more than being a jack of all trades and jumping around between projects - but he does acknowledge that when you look at it on a macro scale, the amount he manages to get done in a day is a little bit crazy. Sailhouse focuses on streamlining event driven development, and a common theme from their origin seems to be the mantra “how hard can it be?” Ed describes the early days, and how he quickly learned that focusing his energy on his connections and building community would be far more effective than the scattergun approach of big companies that he had previously been trying to replicate. Ed is currently working as a product engineer for incident.io, and it’s clear just how much he has taken from his time there. Namely, incident’s approach to customers and maintaining those open channels of communication - encouraging them to be used, rather than closing them off and hiding them away. Ed cites this as something he’ll be carrying forward with him from now on, to Sailhouse and beyond!
