It’s never simple. #flexport

After years and billions on investment in their own fulfilment network, #Shopify abandons and sells it to #Flexport.

#Logistics is hard, especially when you’ve always been in the virtual world of software. It’s a much more blue collar industry and Shopify finally realized they couldn’t understand it.

Their offering never made most sense to most retailers, they will stick to #ecommerce only and let you figure out how to ship your stuff yourself.

Professionally I am a Sr. Analytics Engineer at 🚢#flexport. Previously built the 🐙#seattlekraken hockey operations data pipelining and warehousing solutions. Prior to that did data infrastructure design for ✍️#hellosign and was a data analytics Engineer at 👨‍🏫#udacity. Love all things data in general and am currently learning the ins and outs of 🦆#duckdb.

Finally fun fact about me, I played 🏉#rugby for 10 years and can still throw a solid back hand pass.
