Overview

12 years in software engineering, the last 3 at Qatar Airways, where I lead the developer platform team. Cut p99 latency on the developer platform services from 748ms to 127ms. Reduced cloud spend on developer platform by 24% in two quarters. Before that: Teva and Uber. Most at home with Kubernetes and Go.
