He prioritizes simple, maintainable designs that anticipate failures and serve people as much as requirements, and he has repeatedly restructured teams and processes to improve release cadence and security. Based in Leawood, Kansas, he blends deep payments domain knowledge with a bias for shipping production-grade software on time and on budget.
