This README is intended to be helpful for colleagues at GitLab. For everything else, check https://nick.malcolm.net.nz/!

Preferred engagement style

Please @ me in comments, issues, and MRs. I use TODOs, and rarely check notification emails. You can also DM me on Slack.

My role

I'm on the Application Security Team (role description) and you can find the teams I work with on this handbook page.

Communication & working style

I tend to be concise and direct. Some might say blunt. If I overstep please give me feedback so I can improve!

I like to prepare & be organised (I love lists!) vs. "winging it", but counter that with being loosely attached to my ideas/plans/processes and love to change things in response to what the situation needs.

Māori Kupu

I try to use te reo Māori kupu in my messages, particularly in Slack. Here are some common ones:

  • Kia ora (Hello)
  • Tēnā koe/korua/koutou (Hello - to 1/2/many people)
  • Ngā mihi (Thanks)
  • e hoa / e hoa mā (friend(s))

MaoriDictionary.co.nz can be helpful too!

Personal

I am married and have two young boys ❤️ They might interrupt a meeting or mean I need to postpone. Thanks for understanding!

I like (in no particular order):

  • Trail running
  • Family time
  • Lasagne
  • Going to church
  • Blobbing in front of the TV
  • Reading fantasy (Riftwar Cycle, Wheel of Time, Kingkiller Chronicle, Mistborn, etc) or popcorn thriller (Jack Reacher)
  • Learning about New Zealand history & te ao Māori
