His career spans product-focused roles at Discogs and CD Baby—where he led deployments, migrated a decade-plus codebase from SVN to Git, and built custom CMS tooling—through to agency work integrating AngularJS with Drupal for client sites. An active tinkerer, he contributes keyboard firmware and macOS key-remapping projects on GitHub, demonstrating attention to user interaction and ergonomics beyond typical backend work. Practical, curious, and polyglot, he brings both operational rigor and front-to-back development fluency to complex, real-world systems.
