Chad G is an open source software engineer with nine years of experience building backend-first systems that scale and iterate quickly. He’s the founding engineer behind Providence, a 0→1 open-source AI session replay platform that combines rrweb instrumentation, ETL pipelines, vector search with Qdrant, and RAG workflows to turn raw frontend events into natural-language summaries. Comfortable owning data flows end-to-end, he designed multi-database storage layers and cloud deployments that prioritize fast experimentation with prompts, embeddings, and model behavior. Now contributing at Mozilla, he’s resolved cross-language shutdown and input-event gaps in Firefox’s core subsystems, demonstrating a knack for both systems-level C++/JS work and product-focused engineering. Trained through Launch School’s mastery program and with a background in classical performance, Chad brings disciplined, repetition-driven learning and a musician’s attention to craft to complex engineering problems.
