I'm a software engineer and sometimes a manager of software engineers. I've worked as both a senior individual contributor (Staff+) and a senior manager (VP Engineering, Head of Software Development).

I've worked across many tech stacks. I've spent most of the last six years building distributed systems with Python and Flask deployed on AWS using CloudFormation and some CDK.

Recently I've done some TypeScript/JavaScript, React and Next.js on the frontend with Node.js and Express on the backend. All deployed on AWS using CDK.

For most of my career before that I worked in C++. I'm coming the full circle now and currently learning Rust. Coding Challenges was born out of the process of learning Rust by building real-world applications.
