How I work
  • → I learn any stack in days, not weeks
  • → MVP in weeks, not months
  • → Give me the problem, I'll solve it
  • → Lead or IC, I ship either way
  • → Async-first, overlap with US, EU or APAC
Since 2008

Self-taught since 2008. Learned by shipping: Source Engine mods, Steam bots, then startups.

US & EU clients, worked on-site in Munich, Singapore, Hong Kong

Stack

Any stack, every layer.

From shader code to Kubernetes manifests. Pick the tool for the job, ship it, and keep it running.
