Dear fellow hakkers, as of today I am passing on the baton of Akka Tech Lead @ Lightbend to Patrik Nordwall. Don’t worry, I will stay around and keep working on Akka, but it will no longer be my day job come April: I am co-founding actyx <https://www.actyx.io/en/>—a new start-up in Munich that aims at bringing reactive design principles to the IT behind industrial manufacturing—where I will build and lead the engineering organization. It was always my plan to solve concrete customer challenges once I have collected enough experience with building the tools, and while I had not yet started looking for an opportunity I could also not pass this one up when it presented itself.
Akka will be in good hands with Patrik and the rest of the team, he is as passionate about distributed systems as I am and he is a much more disciplined coder—not to mention that he joined the Akka team before any other current member including myself. I am very grateful that I had the chance to be part of this amazing team for the past 4.5 years and I have no desire to leave this awesome community anytime soon.
