My current tech stack: Python, Django, PostgreSQL, AWS, Docker, Zendesk, Prefect, Honeycomb, Grafana.
I’m a Forward Deployed Software Engineer at a rapidly growing startup, shipping customer-facing features and fixes on 24–48 hour timelines while balancing speed, code quality, and feasibility with the resources available on any given day.
I sit at the intersection of engineering and customers. I work daily with support, customer success, product, core engineering, and our customers’ own engineering leaders to translate specific needs and pain points into pragmatic, software-driven solutions.
Even though my world is engineering, my first love is people. People are complicated, deep, and a joy to work with. My specialty lies in the intersection of people and engineered solutions.
What I do:
- Troubleshoot bugs and ship features alongside core engineering teams
- Serve as a customer-facing engineer and one of the closest engineering voices to the customer
- Touch key pieces of the deployment and observability pipeline (Prefect.io, Bugsnag, Docker, AWS, Honeycomb, Grafana)
- Learn unfamiliar systems quickly and translate that knowledge into language customers can easily understand
- Operate calmly under pressure while still providing clear, software-driven options and answers
- Work within SLAs ranging from 24 hours to one week in a fast-paced environment — and do it collaboratively and cheerfully
I'm happily employed.
