I am open to other engineering roles, but I am mainly looking for engineering roles (or hybrid science/engineer roles) that focus on supporting scientists or scientific organizations. For the last ten years, I have bounced between working as researcher and engineer, and I have a track record of helping scientists write better code (and build better machine learning models). Most recently, I have been part of a team working on a GenAI system. My focus has been on (1) testing to guarantee the model continues to support critical customer needs, and (2) systems that override the model output to increase reliability and consistency for the end users.

I love helping scientists automate the repetitive parts of their work while allowing the flexibility necessary for experimentation.

Does this actually work in practice? I see you've got some donations, but I'm having trouble with the timeline and pizza currency conversions. Is the "amount donated" meter for this month? Six pizzas already--am I reading that right? Sorry, I don't mean to pry, just curious. I'd love to work full time on my distro via such magic.

About Me: I’m a senior frontend/product engineer with ~5 years of experience building modern web applications with TypeScript and React. I’ve worked at an early-stage US startup where I owned core product features end-to-end, collaborating closely with design and backend teams.

I enjoy product-focused engineering, strong UI/UX, performance, and building tools that are both reliable and delightful to use. Recently, I’ve also been building personal projects in devtools and mobile (React Native + Expo).

What I’m Looking For: Full-time remote roles as a Senior Frontend Engineer or Product Engineer, ideally in startups or small teams where I can take ownership, ship quickly, and contribute to both engineering and product decisions.

I am a Software Developer with 4 years of experience developing middleware APIs and internal development tools. Most recently I have been working on Keysight's AI Data Center Builder developing their middleware server and designing the automated build processes for the project to speed up the iteration process.

I'm looking for a team that values collaboration and that holds a high standard for code quality and performance. I am excited to add new tools to my skill set and to learn from senior devs.

I'm a backend/platform engineer and developer advocate with over 10 years of experience building systems at scale across startups and growth-stage companies like Uber and DoorDash.

Until earlier this year, I worked at Uber as a Developer Advocate for Cadence — an open-source workflow orchestration engine powering 12B+ workflows/month. I partnered with dozens of teams to support adoption, scale distributed systems, and troubleshoot production issues. Cadence is a key component of Uber's Michelangelo ML platform, and I worked closely with AI/ML teams to integrate it into fault-tolerant pipelines. I also supported internal model training efforts, including fine-tuning LLMs to answer Cadence-related questions and building systems to classify and prioritize developer support.

At DoorDash, I contributed to the migration from Django to Kotlin microservices on the Drive Merchant Services team, focusing on customer support endpoints. I also designed and implemented a modular refund rules engine for our largest partners, enabling flexible refund logic and supporting internal tooling.

I’ve previously built NLP pipelines at Jobscan to match résumés to job descriptions and score resume strength, and earlier, trained models to predict ad performance based on copywriting—my first foray into ML back in 2016.

After wrapping up at Uber, I'm now excited to return to a hands-on engineering role with a collaborative, technically strong team and a path toward engineering leadership (EM or CTO). I'm particularly interested in infrastructure, developer platforms, and applied ML systems in domains like healthcare, logistics, finance, or defense.

Outside of work, I enjoy navigating Puget Sound on my sailboat, wrenching on my motorcycle, and getting curious about obscure systems and trivia. Let’s build something meaningful.
