Backend-leaning full-stack engineer. I like small teams, boring infrastructure, and shipping things that don't page anyone at 3am.
Rebuilt a finance team's manual reconciliation process into an automated pipeline processing 40k transactions/day.
Mobile data-collection tool for researchers working without reliable connectivity, with conflict-free sync.
Replaced a brittle cron-based alerting system with an event-driven one, cutting false-positive pages by 70%.
I've spent the last six years building backend systems and the occasional frontend when nobody else wants to. Most of that time has been at small startups, where "the codebase" and "the team" are usually the same three people.
I care about clear error messages, boring architecture, and code that's still readable a year later — including by me.
Outside of work I climb, read too much sci-fi, and slowly restore a 1998 road bike.
Open to freelance projects and full-time roles where I can own things end to end.
