MERIDIAN
Hi everyone,
After four years, my time at Meridian is coming to an end. Friday, June
27 will be my last day.
I joined in 2019 as the second product hire. Since then, we’ve gone
from a sketch on a whiteboard to a platform serving 400,000
merchants. I’m proud of what we built together: the Payments launch in
2021, the complete redesign last spring, and somehow surviving three
all-hackathons without any sleep-related injuries.
I’m grateful to this team for the trust, the late-night debugging, the
offsites in Vancouver, and for teaching me that a group of people can
genuinely care about both good code and good coffee.
I’m heading to a new role at a small climate-tech startup in Oakland,
but I’m not going far. If you ever want to talk product, swap book
recommendations, or grab a burrito at Gordo’s, you can reach me at
james@jameschen.co
or on
LinkedIn
.
Take care,
James Chen
Product Manager
