Follow me on Twitter, Mastodon and Bluesky.
I work at Cargill as Lead Software Engineer and Enabler-in-Chief.
My primary roles are enabling software engineering teams to thrive with platforms, services, tooling and helping teams adopt a fullstack approach and pragmatic philosophy to software engineering. Beyond that, I help business teams thrive with technology, build engineering teams focused on growth and autonomy, and lend an engineering perspective to management and its pedestrian duties.

Breakdown
I have experience with the following to varying levels. I consider these buzzwords. They are basically meaningless without the context of the work. Despite that, some organizations believe buzzwords buy sales and success — read the following buzzwords as an exercise in asking useful questions. I cannot share details publicly about the projects that used these specific technologies, though in confidence I may speak more about them privately.

“Whatever I want”
Anyway if you want to pay me the same or more to do whatever I want to do without performance reviews then, my direct messages are open.
