Hi, I'm Charles and I have decades of experience with Linux administration, with some cloud and orchestration thrown in for good measure. I am passionate about open source and making people's lives easier. My strengths are clear communication and methodical troubleshooting. I am proficient in Python and Bash, intermediate in Javascript. I love learning new things and hope for a job that exposes me to more coding, cloud, orchestration, and AI development.

I am considering a change of employment, but only for remote W-2 positions at this time. May consider an on-site job in or around Ann Arbor if the culture is right. Regardless, I'm always happy to talk to anyone about anything so absolutely feel free to reach out for a chat.

Over a decade of experience in Senior and Staff engineering roles building scalable systems and user interfaces. I have extensive background working cross functionally in an organization to create and steward technical roadmaps, meet business objectives and keeping teams from hitting technical roadblocks. I help build teams up sustainably and have extensive experience in technical leadership and mentoring peers.

My background for the last 4 years in particular has been on scaling a business, with a general focus on the user experience and technical stability. Taking a product or suite of products from 400 to 40,000 active users without losing control of performance and keeping the user experience approachable is where I shine best. This means addressing performance impacting hot spots, adoption of new tools or improving existing ones, proper A/B testing, gathering user experience data to identify pain points and most importantly empowering teams to move fast sustainably through best practice.

Email: martin@arp242.net

I've been using Go as my primary language for the last nine years, although I don't overly care about the specific language and have experience with a wide variety of tools and languages such as Python, Ruby, PHP, C, JavaScript, Lua, and probably some more. While I've mainly focused on backend in the last few years, I also have written plenty of frontend code over the years, from the "pre-jQuery" days to VueJS.

In the last few years I mainly focused on GoatCounter (https://www.goatcounter.com) with the occasional contract job, but I'm keen to start working on something new for the longer term.

I've got quite a bit of code on my GitHub, so you can take a look at that if you want: https://github.com/arp242
