I build backend systems, wrangle unruly data pipelines, and keep platform infrastructure from catching fire.
"Any sufficiently advanced backend is indistinguishable from magic." — me, after debugging at 3 AM
|
🔧 Legacy Code Exorcism I take slow, aging services and rewrite them in modern, performant languages (like Go) so everyone can sleep better at night. 🔩 Heavy-Duty Data Plumbing I architect and own large-scale data platforms. If it involves moving, transforming, or querying terabytes of data daily without dropping a single byte — I'm your guy. 🤖 Relentless Automation If I have to do a task twice, I'll write a script for it. CLI tools, developer workflows, automated pipelines — nobody should be doing manual work in 2026. |
☁️ Infrastructure Wrangling I migrate systems across cloud providers and stuff services into Kubernetes containers until they behave — all while keeping downtime at absolute zero. 🛡️ Disaster Avoidance I design CI/CD pipelines that make deployments incredibly boring and uneventful — exactly as they should be. 🧠 AI Whisperer I champion AI tools across engineering teams because I believe in letting the robots write the boilerplate while we solve the hard problems. |
🤝 Mentorship — I help onboard new engineers, quickly turning them from "where is the repo?" to shipping production code.
