About
Business-oriented, hands-on engineer who has spent his career making systems scale. I've worked across ad-tech, fintech payments and mobile - building the critical paths that thousands of users depend on. I like reducing complex problems to the change that actually moves the needle, then shipping it with the tests, observability and documentation to keep it running.
