Software Engineer delivering robust tooling and server applications

🚀 Primarily in Golang I help teams turn complex ideas into robust software tools, from high-performance backends to clever SSH tunnels and 3D visualization platforms. As a tech lead and hands-on engineer, I bring clarity, thoughtful architecture, and a passion for building systems that last. I thrive on solving tricky problems and mentoring others along the way. If you're looking for someone who pairs sharp engineering with genuine joy for the craft, let's connect.

Personality traits

How I took my abilities one step further
By putting more focus on the relationships between concepts rather than the concepts themselves
Where I got my confidence
I find confidence in being sure I can learn something rather than already knowing it.

Personality tests

INTP Personality ("Logician")
People with the INTP personality type (Logicians) analyze everything that they come across. This gives them a knack for spotting unexpected patterns and connections that other personalities might overlook.

Work samples

This is one of my most favorite projects I've worked on, it involved so many different parts of software engineering: Backend, Frontend, DevOps, Unity (suedo game dev), 3D visualization, realtime, etc
Made my own HTTP proxy due frustration with existing tools. It is written in Go and only uses the standard library.
