// what I do

  • Architecture

    Service boundaries, C4 and contract-first APIs. The boxes-and-arrows part, then the code that follows them.

  • Data pipelines

    Batch and real-time ingestion from third parties who swear their data is clean.

  • AWS, as code

    ECS, Lambda, Step Functions. Terraform and CDK, because click-ops doesn't have a git log.

  • AI-assisted engineering

    Claude Code daily: custom skills, hooks and multi-repo agent orchestration.
