SEEKING WORK | Remote | (Flexible availability)
Consultant with experience as a software engineer at various enterprise-scale tech companies including Google and Amazon (AWS). Looking to help companies of all sizes solve business problems (often through automation and code) as a core-contributor or part-time CTO.
For early-stage startups, I typically focus on:
• Improving the time to market of feature development by evaluating the software delivery pipeline and investing in minimal viable release tooling.
• Increasing customer satisfaction by improving operational resiliency, thereby increasing service reliability
• Managing risk by choosing the right tools, establishing low-friction security best practices, and standing up essential monitoring tools.
For more mature startups, I typically focus on:
• Reducing the total cost of ownership of a product by addressing critical technical debt and lowering engineering overhead through automation, optimizing cloud compute resources, identifying optimizations in data storage solutions, and leaning on robust open source software.
• Reducing attrition through a combination of technical and operational practices inspired by the engineering culture at Google.
• Anticipating increased demand by designing modern elastic software architectures that can efficiently scale in and out to meet the complex needs of most established tech products.
