Hello!

I'm a senior software engineer with ~19 years of professional experience, specialising in low-level systems programming, embedded, infrastructure, and performance-critical software.

I've worked across kernel-level, embedded, and application layers. I've done everything from small time application work to environments where problems are complex, failure is expensive, and correctness matters.

Selected experience:

• Built and shipped a Rust-based OpenSSL engine for an HSM as a contractor for Microsoft
• Worked on a RISC-V MCU emulator
• Bootstrapped a Rust toolchain from mrustc in a production environment
• Developed tooling for container image ecosystems, including an image linter
• Background in hosting/infrastructure environments
• Mentored others in Rust
• Experience contributing to a wide variety of FOSS projects
• Former director of a non-profit (team leadership, operations, decision-making)

My core skills:

• Languages: C, C++, Rust, Python, (plus working JavaScript)
• Systems: low-level development, kernel-adjacent work, embedded systems, Linux and POSIX systems
• Tooling: ASan, GCC analyser, Coverity, CI/CD (GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps)
• Practises: TDD, custom test harnesses, strong debugging discipline
• Areas: concurrency/async systems, network servers, inter-language interop, cryptography, performance optimisation, debugging

What I bring to the table:

• Experience: I have worked in all company sizes, from tiny startups to big companies
• Deep experience with debugging: I can solve complex, non-obvious failures
• Strong systems background: memory, concurrency, and performance are core strengths
• Breadth: I can move between low-level and higher-level work as needed
• Pragmatism: I focus on shipping reliable, maintainable systems

What I'm looking for:

• Fully remote if possible
• Async-friendly teams (PDT-based)
• Open to full-time or contract
• Compensation: $135k+ depending on scope
• Medium to long-term work preferred, but I'll take what I can get
• Preferably #NoAI but beggars can't be choosers

If you or your company are building infrastructure, systems software, or anything performance-sensitive, I'm likely to be a strong fit 🙂.

Ok, small experiment to see if this scales…

We've developed a new open standard to create the best music experience across multiple devices and rooms. It's called Sendspin.

You can try it in the latest release of @musicassistant, or try the live demo on our website:

Let me know what you think!

Wild that America has a president who regularly goes “I’ll start World War 3” to tank the stock market and then at the last minute says “j/k I’m not invading Greenland/Iran/Canada/etc” then the market jumps back up with mysterious people making a killing after he backs down.

An amazing coincidence.
