philernst/README.md

Hi, I'm Phil 👋

I'm a web producer / product manager passionate about building clear, performant, and scalable web experiences. I thrive at the intersection of content, code, and collaboration—bringing together cross-functional teams to ship pages that matter.

  • 💻 I build and manage high-visibility webpages using Contentful, working closely with design, engineering, and marketing stakeholders.
  • ⚙️ I streamline workflows with GitHub Actions, automate tasks, and advocate for smarter systems that reduce manual effort.
  • 📈 I use analytics and user data to prioritize what gets built and ensure that what we ship has measurable impact.
  • 🫶 I embed accessibility best practices into every project—supporting audits, resolving issues, and building inclusive experiences.
  • 🧩 I specialize in transforming complex requirements into modular, actionable steps.

🔧 My Toolbox

  • CMS: Contentful, Cascade, WordPress
  • Code: HTML, CSS, React, Next.js
  • Automation: GitHub Actions

🌱 Currently Learning

  • Deepening my skills in GitHub Copilot & leveraging AI to scale
  • Continuing to grow as a product leader and systems thinker

✍️ Recent Wins

  • Launched over 100+ pages across key GitHub.com properties
  • Shipped pages at 3x delivery speed of traditional engineering workflows
  • Scaled CMS to power 42% of GitHub.com traffic

🌿 Outside of Work

When I'm not building web experiences, you’ll find me:

  • 🏃‍♂️ Training for a marathon
  • 🧱 Playing in the dirt and building Lego cities with my 3 boys
  • 🪴 Growing green beans like a wannabe farmer
  • 🔨 Tackling home improvement projects one DIY at a time

I’m always up for learning something new or solving a good problem.
