Damian Wasserman

Co-founder & Head of Sales

Damian Wasserman is the co-founder of BEON.tech, which he started in 2018 with Michel Cohen, and he leads the company’s sales team. Since then he has spent his days connecting leading US companies with top-tier engineers from Latin America. He has always been drawn to two things at once: the technical work of making things run and the business side of building something new, and technology has been the bridge that lets him create more than he could build with his own two hands. After several years away from hands-on coding, AI brought him back over the past two years, and he says he is now several times more productive than before. Today he builds something new almost every day, from integrations and automations to AI skills he shares with the BEON.tech team so the company can lead the way in how engineering teams work with AI. A member of the Forbes Technology Council, Damian writes about nearshore software development, staff augmentation, hiring engineers in Latin America, and how AI is changing the way engineering teams are built.

Software Engineering Metrics for Remote Teams

There is no shortage of listicles telling you which software engineering metrics to track. Most of them are built around the same framework: deploy a dashboard, pull in your GitHub and Jira data, and watch the numbers move. That is fine advice if your team sits in the same office, ships under the same conditions,…
