About
22 years in software engineering, the last 5 at Stripe, where I lead the real-time team. Reduced cloud spend on real-time by 35% in two quarters. Grew the real-time team from 6 to 15 engineers. Before that: ANZ and Visa. Most at home with Elixir and low-latency systems. Bird-watcher and amateur naturalist.
