About me
Richard led Ant Group Open Source initiative from day 1 and developed the initiative from a single person effort to a cross-functional OSPO team covering governance, strategy, developer experience, product development, growth and internationalization efforts. At this moment, the team collaborates closely with 20+ internal open source projects to help their community development, data science needs, developer growth needs, outreach and partnership collaborations, and go-to-market expansions. We setup rules and processes, building tools and utilities, and design full-fledged products to help both our internal users and external community partners.
As an ex-Square, ex-Microsoft engineer by training and father to a toddler, Richard enjoyed leading strategic initiatives from scratch to fruition and building products that developers and end-users love to use.
Richard has been studying and working for more than 5 years each in 4 different countries (Singapore, Canada, USA and China) with immensely cross-cultural collaboration experience.
