Senior backend engineer building reliable systems for real businesses
13+ years in software. Live commerce, payments, logistics, AWS, and product-minded delivery.
I am a senior software engineer currently working with Tilt, where I build backend systems for live commerce across auctions, payments, shipping, seller tooling, and real-time buyer workflows.
My strongest work is taking ambiguous, domain-heavy problems and turning them into dependable production systems: clear trade-offs, careful releases, scoped operational access, and engineering judgment that holds up when the pressure is real.
Family first, software close behind, and always trying to stay fit enough to keep up with both. I like teams that move fast, communicate plainly, and care about the boring details that make complex systems reliable.
