I'm a platform engineer and technical leader who believes the best way to scale an engineering organization is to build leverage through exceptional developer experience.
The Platform Toolsmith
I call myself "The Platform Toolsmith" because I'm an architect who still ships code. I design systems, but I also build the tools that make those systems work. I believe the best platform engineers understand both the big picture and the implementation details.
What I'm Working On
Currently, I'm focused on building internal developer platforms that give engineering teams superpowers. I write about the patterns, practices, and tools that make platform engineering effective.
Background
My journey in software engineering has taken me from individual contributor to technical leadership roles, with a focus on infrastructure, developer experience, and platform engineering.
