Senior engineer & founder turning complex problems into simple, reliable systems.
I'm a senior software engineer and technical founder with 10+ years of experience building and scaling web and mobile applications. I specialize in Ruby, Elixir, JavaScript/TypeScript, and modern DevOps practices, with a track record of delivering high-performance systems across startups, growth-stage companies, and my own ventures.
At Gate City Software, I serve as the sole technical founder, architecting and maintaining a multi-app ecosystem that powers client projects and internal products. From designing multi-tenant Rails/Elixir APIs to building React/React Native frontends and static publishing flows, I translate complex business requirements into scalable, reliable software.
I thrive in environments that require initiative, ownership, and collaboration with non-technical stakeholders. My work has spanned everything from hands-on backend performance tuning to leading engineering practices that reduce cost and technical debt.
