I'm a software engineer with 10+ years of experience building and shipping web products. My sweet spot is backend systems, but I work comfortably across the stack and have experience leading engineering teams. Recent projects are in Go, TypeScript, and Python, but I'll use whatever tech fits the problem. I enjoy working on challenging technical problems, understanding how systems work, and collaborating with people who care about building quality software.
