A New Chapter: Thank You, n8n

A personal note from Angel Menendez, Founder — AZ Technology Solutions

I have some exciting news to share — and a heartfelt thank you to deliver.

As of August 8, 2024, I’ve joined n8n as a Staff Developer Advocate. If you know me at all, you know this isn’t just a job change — it’s a dream come true.

New beginnings

How It Started

My n8n journey began the way the best stories do — as a curious user. Back in 2022, I discovered n8n and immediately fell in love with the platform. The open-source philosophy, the power, the flexibility — it was everything I’d been looking for in an automation tool.

I was so passionate about it that I started an unofficial n8n podcast, covering new releases, use cases, and the growing community. You can check out the early episodes right here on this blog:

What started as a passion project turned into something bigger. The n8n team noticed. We started talking. And eventually, they offered me a role that combined everything I love — automation, community, developer education, and being at the forefront of AI-powered workflows.

I couldn’t say no.

A Difficult Decision

With this new full-time role, I’ve made the difficult decision to pause active operations at AZ Technology Solutions. This wasn’t easy. This company has been my baby — built from the ground up, serving amazing clients across Tucson, Sahuarita, and Green Valley.

But this opportunity at n8n is once-in-a-career. Automation and AI are reshaping every industry, and this role puts me right at the cutting edge of that transformation. I owe it to myself — and ultimately to you, my clients — to grow and learn at this level.

Thank You

To every client who trusted me with their website, their brand, their online presence — thank you. From the bottom of my heart. You took a chance on a small, local web design firm, and I hope I delivered something you’re proud of.

A few important notes:

  • Hosting clients: Your hosting is NOT affected. Sites will continue to be maintained, updated, and secured. Nothing changes for you.
  • Existing projects: Any in-progress work will be completed as promised.
  • New projects: I’m pausing new client work for now to focus on the n8n role.

This Isn’t Goodbye

This isn’t goodbye — it’s “see you later.” AZ Technology Solutions is part of who I am. The skills I’ll build at n8n, the patterns I’ll learn from working with enterprises worldwide — all of that will come back to this community eventually.

Thank you for being part of this journey. The best is yet to come.
