Many of my friends have shared their reading lists of all the books they read in 2014 (thank you!) -- this gave me some excellent ideas of books to read for 2015.

So I have decided to share my reading list as well, and the list of books I plan to read in 2015. If you have any ideas for additional books, I'd love them (especially in the topic areas of business, finance, nonfiction).

Favorite books I read in 2014:

• The Hard Thing About Hard Things: Building a Business When There Are No Easy Answers by Ben Horowitz
• The Everything Store: Jeff Bezos and the Age of Amazon by Brad Stone
• The Effective Executive: The Definitive Guide to Getting the Right Things Done by Peter F Drucker
• Zero to One: Notes on Startups, or How to Build the Future by Peter Thiel

Ruby Infrastructure Engineer, San Francisco, California

Hi, I'm Ben. I'm the lead engineer of the infrastructure team at Zendesk.

I'm looking for a passionate and talented ruby engineer to join our infrastructure team in San Francisco. Who are we? We are the hackers behind the scenes -- we build the services and struts that the rest of Zendesk builds good product on top of. We like solving hard problems, fixing deep bugs, and doing it at scale. We'll try out new technologies, but love technology that delivers on its promises. We feel confident when we press the enter key. We're a team of good generalists who like learning the stack well enough to be considered a specialist.

Some of what we've been up to recently.

• Building a secondary long term ticket store using Riak
• Implement a runtime mysql-master failover solution (https://github.com/osheroff/ar_mysql_flexmaster)

Make it real

Ideas are cheap. Make a prototype, sketch a CLI session, draw a wireframe. Discuss around concrete examples, not hand-waving abstractions. Don't say you did something, provide a URL that proves it.

Ship it

Nothing is real until it's being used by a real user. This doesn't mean you make a prototype in the morning and blog about it in the evening. It means you find one person you believe your product will help and try to get them to use it.

Do it with style
