Pressure tested builds
with clean internals.

I like building things
that feel real.
Stuff people actually use,
not just things that
look done.
I care more about how
something behaves
than how it's described.
I figure out why
things break and
make them break less.
Sometimes I drift into
hardware, where
software stops being
abstract, physics fights
back and things fail
in the real world.
I work across the stack
to design, build and ship
systems that are fast,
reliable and scalable.
Building modular services and robust APIs with clean architecture, authentication and performance in mind.
Designing data models, optimizing queries and building reliable pipelines that scale with your product.
Instrumenting systems to see everything, understand anomalies and resolve issues before users feel them.
Working close to the metal. Embedded systems, sensors and hardware interfaces that connect software to reality.
Building products, communities, and systems. 2025 → Present
Selected projects.
Built with intent.
