Engineer, DevOps, Architect. Builder and scaler of high-traffic, real-time systems.
Engineer, DevOps, Architect, Tech Founder – 30 years of coding and technical leadership at startups, having built most of said startups' products from scratch. Thus, I know many technologies, and can wear many hats. Architecting, coding, scaling… I can't get enough! I pick up new technologies very fast, and am highly resourceful. I love to learn, love to code, love to deliver practical and stable solutions on or ahead of time. Combine that with my understanding of *business* needs, and the ability to positively serve as liaison between product, sales, marketing, customers, and internal development teams, and you have a good picture of who I am. I'm an empathetic, no-ego team player and will do what needs doing to get the job done. I'll work late, I'll work early. I don't consider myself "above" any job. You need coffee? I'll make you coffee. Please no inquiries unless the position is remote!
