    Experienced engineer interested in all things deployment infrastructure, systems programming, observability, performance analysis, and advanced testing methods. I would be particularly interested in positions that involve systems programming (preferably with Zig!) and would welcome the chance to build out advanced testing infrastructure (fuzzing, deterministic simulation, etc). I have a lot of experience with cloud deployment infrastructure and love making complicated processes understandable, reliable, and repeatable. Most recently I've spent the past 2 years scaling out a complex BYOC/self-hosted deployment, building automation for packaging and verification. If you've got problems to solve at any intersection of the areas above, happy to chat!
