Software engineer and former Chief Architect who believes good engineering should take work away, not add it: fixing problems at the source so they stop coming back, whether by automating years of repetitive work or pushing fixes upstream so other teams stop hitting the same wall.
10+ years of experience, 4 of them in technical leadership, and 6 years of production Rust across AWS, MongoDB, and startups. Currently DRI at MongoDB for Atlas Local tooling (an all-Rust library, CLI, and MCP integration) and remote MCP; previously built AWS Lambda deployment tooling spanning every region and availability zone, and led a company-wide rewrite to event-sourced Rust microservices as Chief Architect, driving direction across every team in partnership with the CEO and CTO.
