He has been giving Rust training courses professionally since 2015, with more than five training courses per year. RIPE, Mozilla, and Wire are just some of the groups he has trained. He also gives workshops and async programming around conferences. Before training Rust, he trained people on Elasticsearch and Ruby on Rails.
James Munns
James is an embedded engineer who has worked on systems ranging from safety critical avionics to rapidly prototyped IoT devices. He is a member of the Rust Language Embedded Working Group and a mentoring partner in the 2018 edition of the Increasing Rust’s Reach initiative. James has given a number of trainings on Rust and Embedded Rust, including public trainings at OxidizeConf and RustConf, as well as to private engineering and leadership teams.
Tanks Transfeld
Although Tanks spent their teenage years assembling and fixing computers, they first studied chemistry and worked as a teacher. Only later did they fulfill their long-cherished dream of learning programming. Today they help others make their coding dreams come true too: Tanks is in charge of organizing our workshops and is the person to contact for all questions regarding our training programs.
