🧑‍💻4+ years full-stack🌍Remote & async🏗️SaaS · EdTech · FinTech · GIS🏎️Cars & Sim racing

I build the systems behind the product. Over the past 4 years I've taken projects from empty repos to thousands of daily users: an e-learning platform on GCP, a workflow engine with LLM extraction, a GIS tool used by government agencies. TypeScript and Next.js are my defaults, and I use LLMs and automation daily, both as dev tools and as features I ship into products.

I work best remote and async, but I don't hide behind Slack messages. I'll sketch an architecture in a Loom, pair on a hard bug over a call, or write the RFC that saves three meetings. What I won't do is ship something I haven't tested against real usage.

Outside of code, I'm usually behind a steering wheel, or a sim wheel. I play WRC and tinker with car setups the same way I tune systems: change one variable, measure, repeat. It's the same feedback loop, just sideways on gravel.
