About

I help engineering teams ship faster by turning technical debates into decisions. Recently helped my team cut deployment time from 19 mins to 9 minutes by enabling central docker cache, build system cache, moving repetitive CI workflows to run on each PR level, decoupling CD, etc., —small wins like this keep momentum going To keep me technically grounded, I'm currently exploring Zig for hobby coding and recently developed a high-performance redis server.
