Hello! I am a software engineer with background on distributed systems, software delivery. I'm good at turning business problems into technical ones, and support engineering teams to solve them effectively.

I work a Principal SWE at Midokura building systems to manage fleets of intelligent devices within Sony's Edge AI sensing platform, AITRIOS. I previously worked at New Relic, Adevinta, Last.fm and some others. For more info, check out the about section.

I write about software engineering, you can join the mailing list using the form below, or via RSS feed (expect low frequency, long form content.) I'm also at Bluesky and Twitter/X.
