About

Over a decade in. Still enjoying it.

I'm a backend-focused software engineer with deep experience in cloud infrastructure, distributed systems, and the kind of platform work that keeps everything running but rarely makes it onto a slide deck.

At Senacor, I spent nine years as Lead Developer — leading a feature team inside an agile delivery setup. That means I know how to design architecture and how to work with the people implementing it. I thrive in collaborative environments and I've been told I'm easy to be around.

Currently working as an individual contributor at codejoi, focused on cloud, infrastructure, and application engineering.

Agentic AI coding tools are part of how I work — Claude Code specifically. I've found that knowing when not to trust it is at least half the skill, and a decade of engineering judgement tends to help with that.

I don't have a LinkedIn. This is it.
