He has a strong backend focus with Python and Postgres combined with hands-on frontend work in Node and web standards, honed through roles at GitHub and Mozilla where he helped maintain MDN Web Docs. His open-source contributions span critical projects like mdn/kuma and kumascript, improving documentation rendering, infrastructure, and reliability for one of the web’s most trusted developer resources.
