Ben Cherry is a Product and engineering leader | LiveKit, Aura, Twitter, and Slide at LiveKit. Colleagues describe them as "When I met Ben for the first time, he was interviewing for a role at Slide. He wowed me with his smarts and experience, far beyond what I would expect from a recent college grad. Over the course of his time at Slide, I watched him grow, as he took a mild interest in front-end work and transformed it into a solid passion to learn the best ways to write JavaScript and teach others on the team how to clean up our code base. Ben balanced pragmatism and Getting Shit Done in an impressive manner. At times, his wisdom made it hard to remember that he is disgustingly young. He will do great things, and I hope we get to work together again." and "Ben is first rate, at worse the bottom of the top of the pyramid and at best the top of the top of the pyramid. I have yet to see a technical problem he is unable to deal with successfully. I have been impressed by his acute and intuitive methods of deduction, harking an alacrity of mind most uncommon."
