Hey, I'm Jamie Tanna (he/him/his) 👋

I'm currently a Senior Software Engineer at Deliveroo, and I'm currently based in Nottingham.

I have a /now page, which aims to be a more up-to-date about page.

I use my personal website as a method of blogging about my learnings, as well as sharing information about projects I have previously, or am currently, working on in my spare time.

I maintain a number of Open Source projects, and primarily use GitLab for my source control, but also use GitHub for some things.


I write a fair bit on my blog:

  • Introducing openapi-sorbet, a command-line tool for generating Sorbet types from OpenAPI
  • Learn how to build tools
  • Week Notes 23#21

I blog as a form of documentation, as noted in my post Blogumentation - Writing Blog Posts as a Method of Documentation:

  • Introducing openapi-sorbet, a command-line tool for generating Sorbet types from OpenAPI
  • Getting a --version flag for Cobra CLIs in Go
  • Performing downtime-inducing AWS RDS changes with no downtime☆
  • The Lazy engineer's guide to running your Go web application to AWS Lambda
  • Which OS and CPU architecture is this binary compiled for?

I track articles and resources that I recommend I/others read as bookmarks on my site, the latest of which are:

  • You Can Write About Anything
  • Secrets Exposed: How to mitigate risk from secrets leaks — and prevent future breaches
  • The Importance of Labor Organizing in Tech (To Me)
  • Read Every Single Error
  • A new way to measure developer productivity – from the creators of DORA and SPACE

I also write Week Notes as a way of summarising what's going on in my life. The last one can be found at Week Notes 23#21.


I like to track my data in IndieWeb fashion. For instance, the last book I read was The magician's apprentice by Trudi Canavan, and yesterday, I took 8285 steps.


This is an autogenerated README, which is automagically deployed using GitLab CI.
