What I'm into

Engineering, teams, and shipping.

/01

Resilience & infrastructure

Backend systems that have to stay up — microservices, fault tolerance, and the quieter work behind reliable services.

/02

Leading engineers

Team lead and delivery manager. I care about feedback, growth, and giving engineers room to do good work.

/03

Engineering with AI tools

Used daily — pair-coding, exploring unknowns, drafting first passes. Tools, not magic.

Tools I reach for
Python TypeScript React JavaScript Node FastAPI PostgreSQL Docker Kubernetes AWS GitHub Actions a11y microservices delivery mentorship
Selected work

A few things I'm proud of.
