Seasoned Software/DevOps Engineer with 20 years experience. Delivered products to production in 10-person and Fortune-50 companies. Passionate about speed and quality (DevEx), using a product-minded, pragmatic approach to TDD.
Companies benefit from my unique combination of development, DevOps, and security skills. Past projects:
- "guardrails" event-driven security stack, for a bank
- built tools so devs work at higher level of abstraction
- ISO certification at fintech startup
- fullstack software including infra for ecommerce sites
- simplify and speed up CICD, increasing business-critical velocity
Teaching/Volunteer work: Current workshop is "Fast Development" on maximizing software impact and velocity -- contact me for a free preview! Gave dozens of talks at Socal Python, Girl Develop It, and other groups. Happy to mentor engineers at any phase of career.
