Device drivers to cloud platforms, hands-on technical leadership
Build the teams, patterns, and practices that drive delivery outcomes
Leadership doesn't mean leaving the work behind. Outside of work I build and run my own infrastructure end to end, where I pressure-test new tools and patterns before they reach a team.
I drive a multi-machine fleet and my daily development through agentic coding tooling (Claude Code). I build the hooks, skills, sub-agents, and multi-agent workflows myself, so the tooling does real work instead of sitting in a chat window.
Multiple machines managed entirely as code with NixOS. Self-hosted git, services, and dashboards with full monitoring and automated deployments. If it runs in my house, it's reproducible from a config file.
Currently building a game engine in Zig, with Rust and low-level work alongside it. Building from scratch keeps me honest about what's underneath the platforms I architect on.
Two decades in and I still ship code every day. It's the only way to know what's realistic to ask of the engineers and teams I lead, instead of managing from a slide deck.
