Nominate an Awesome Community Chef!

Mandi Walls | Posted on | ChefConf | community

ChefConf 2019 is our time to get together with our community, learn from each other, and celebrate all the amazing things we’ve accomplished together over the year. One of the ways we love to recognize the contributions and hard work of our community is through the Awesome Community Chef Awards.

Awesome Community Chefs are folks in our community who are doing amazing things. These community contributors give us all kinds of gifts every day: new projects, ideas for existing projects, and the hard work to maintain important components like cookbooks and profiles.

We know they’re out there, and we want to hear from you about how they’ve impacted your experiences with our projects – Chef, InSpec, and Habitat. Who’s out there making your work easier? Who’s put that PR in that fixed an issue you had? Let’s hear about it!

Nominate an Awesome Chef

Nominate someone for an Awesome Community Chef award! If you’re not sure what that means, here are the winners from ChefConf 2018, ChefConf 2017 and ChefConf 2016. They can be a community member or a current employee of Chef. Maybe they wrote an awesome blog post that you refer to over and over. Maybe they added a tool or feature to the workflow that you rely on. Maybe they took some time to answer a question you had in a thoughtful way that made you feel listened to and included. It’s your chance to send some public kudos. The only restriction is that prior Awesome Community Chefs can’t win again; they’re totally still awesome!

Nominations will close April 12, 2019.

We’ll award this year’s Awesome Community Chefs at ChefConf. You’ll want to be there!

ChefConf is a gathering and celebration of the Chef community. Everyone is welcome to come and share stories, learn new techniques, and network with peers from around the world.

ChefConf 2019 is going to be extra special because we’re in Chef’s home of Seattle! We hope you’ll join us on May 20-24. If you’ve not gotten your tickets yet, be sure to register!
