About

** WILL NEVER EVER WORK AT ANY WORKPLACE WHICH IS NOT ONSITE. ONLY CONTACT ME ABOUT ONSITE. I AM NOT INTERESTED IN ANYTHING ELSE** I am a Senior Software Development Engineer, currently using my AWS and interview bar raiser skills to create a solid foundation for Calltree AI. I've worked across all parts of AWS, from Retail to Networking to RDS to EC2. I've been a C# dev, an Android dev, a frontend dev for the retail website, a backend dev for critical EC2 APIs, an infrastructure engineer, etc. I've truly worn all hats. If you have used AWS or Amazon or the Internet in any capacity, you have almost certainly interacted with some things I've built.At Amazon, I was also a Bar Raiser (see this article for details about what that is: https://www.aboutamazon.com/news/workplace/amazon-bar-raiser) and a Senior Certified Speaker (I spoke at AWS Summits and similar events).My interests include Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC), optimization problems, mentoring others, and science fiction. I also enjoy learning other languages and am learning Hebrew, Italian, and Spanish. Hit me up if you speak these and are open to helping me practice :D
