I build tools that make work easier.
I fell into an automation-focused role, enjoyed improving the process, and have been building tools and automations ever since.
I’m looking for senior IC or lead roles where I can build, keep learning, and help a team get good work done. Lately, my projects have been around AI guardrails and keeping sensitive data secure.
How I got here
Automation wasn’t a career plan. My first role happened to focus on it, and I liked finding ways to make a process quicker and easier for the people doing the work. I kept looking for those opportunities as I moved into software engineering.
At AT&T, I was lead developer on an internal application that brought a manual, spread-out process into one platform and automated many of its workflows. The team went from the 50s to the mid-20s while maintaining the same efficiency. I worked across building the application, improving the process, and keeping the platform running.
I was also lead developer on an inspections product where field staff often had poor service. They used to be blocked when they couldn’t reach the old application. I worked on offline support so they could complete the full inspection and have their work sync when service returned. I also built out the product’s identity service for authentication across its other services.
Outside of work, I spend time with my wife and son, train my dog, and do yard work. If I’m stuck, I’ll ask a coworker for another perspective or use AI like a pair-programming partner.
