About

Tech Lead & Senior Software Engineer with 8+ years of experience building complex frontend systems and developer tooling across web and mobile platforms. I focus on delivering high-quality, maintainable software while driving technical direction and improving engineering workflows. At Goldcast, I’ve led pods and org-wide initiatives to advance Spec-driven Development (SDD) and AI-assisted engineering, helping teams ship faster and with greater consistency. My work spans frontend architecture, testing infrastructure, and developer tooling—along with hands-on experimentation in applying LLMs to real-world engineering problems like code generation, testing, and developer feedback loops. I’m particularly interested in developer experience, scalable frontend systems, and the intersection of AI and software engineering. I thrive in roles that combine individual technical depth with mentorship and long-term technical vision. Outside of work, I spend time on side projects involving Raspberry Pi and microcontrollers, cooking, drumming, and photography—usually under the quiet supervision of my cats. Always learning, always building.
