Overview

I've spent 26 years on payments infrastructure - first at Google, now at Lattice Bio. Led the migration of 22 services to PostgreSQL. Reduced cloud spend on payments platform by 37% in two quarters. Before that: Tata Motors and Qualcomm. Most at home with PostgreSQL and Erlang/OTP. Learning to sail.
