About

My name is Ben Packer and I am a Brooklyn based software engineer and socialist passionate about the upcoming PostgreSQL release and surviving the 21st century.

In 2019, I was a co-founder of [[Things I’ve Tried|Rewired Coop]], a technology coop building software for organizers with roots in the Bernie 2020 campaign and the Democratic Socialist left.

In 2024, I began my current role working on the technology for communications and organizing systems for the United Auto Workers.
