I am a backend developer with a background working on highly scalable systems, event sourcing, message buses, and more recently, containers. I have worked remote at a number of jobs and am accustomed to getting things done while having to be proactive about communicating with teammates. I have worked on a great deal of open source including on the Go programming language, various XMPP clients and libraries, etc. and have contributed to standards bodies such as the XMPP Standards Foundation and the IETF. Most recently I have worked for Docker but sadly they are selling half the company as you might have hard, so I am tentatively keeping my ears open for other opportunities. Let's chat and see if my experience would be a good fit for your team!

  Location: Atlanta, GA
  Remote: Yes
  Willing to relocate: No
  Technologies: Go (golang), Rust, Python, Terraform, LaTeX, Jabber/XMPP, Linux, BDSs, SmartOS
  Résumé/CV: Email for PDF résumé, or get a summary at: https://stackoverflow.com/users/story/1087001
