    I'm looking for a competitive, fast-moving team to join. I'm also open to contract work, but I would prefer to commit full time.

    If your approach to making decisions is to spend 30 minutes using coding agents to spin up several infrastructure configurations on AWS, then use automation to stress test them for 5 minutes to find the best configuration for running your system; or to set up a grid of front-end frameworks like React and Svelte, implementing every state management system, like Redux and RxJS, in isolation to build a performance table so you can make informed decisions with empirical data, then I would be a good fit for your team.

    As a consultant and full-time engineer, I’ve led 0-to-1 product development across streaming, real estate, edtech, marketing, and media. Having worked at companies ranging from a 130-person AI organization to a scrappy 7-person team, I thrive most in fast-paced, high-ownership environments.
