Backend / infra SWE with 10 YOE. Most recently I was a SWE-SRE at FAANG (5 years) and a Fortune 500. Interested in working with teams working towards something for the general benefit of society and not just looking to maximize shareholder profit. Examples areas include: education, healthcare, GovTech (public interest tech, grassroots organizing), climate / sustainability.

I'm a software engineer with 10 YOE, though I was also an SRE at Google for a long time, so perhaps I have an understanding and appreciation of how to scale systems and infrastructure as well. Generally I like building interesting and reliable distributed systems. I'm looking to work with a smallish team of senior engineers trying to solve something interesting, or doing something generally good for society. These days I've been using Golang quite a bit, and I'm looking to work more in that language.


Software Engineer (10 YOE) | Backend/Infrastructure

Spent the last 5 years at Google building and operating critical services with huge scale. I designed and shipped distributed monitoring systems, migrated a huge global, sharded database to safe rollout automation, and shipped code in Go, Python and C++, both internal tooling, as well as instrumenting and adding features to user-facing binaries serving many QPS. Half the time I was production oncall for these services too. Before this, moved fast at startups and mid-sized US companies. Now seeking: Backend or infrastructure engineering roles where I can build resilient systems that matter. Strong preference for companies with meaningful mission, but open to any team with high ownership culture. In my work, I care a lot about resilient design, long-term operability, and reliability and would like to work with others who are similarly oriented.

Location: Currently Japan, relocating to US (PNW preferred) or remote Remote: Open to remote or hybrid Willing to relocate: Yes Technologies: Golang (current focus), Python, C++, Kubernetes, protocol buffers, PostgresQL, AWS, CI/CD, GitHub Actions, batch / streaming pipelines...More than the specific technologies, I think it's important to know what questions to ask of it, its limitations, and how to pick up anything.
