Summary

I have spent most of my career as a Software Engineer and Cloud Architect. I am currently working as an SRE at Indeed on the Edge team which handles over 200B requests per month via Cloudflare and AWS. Previous to Indeed, I worked at Kount (acquired by Equifax) where I was a Cloud Architect for two different products to prevent payment and identity fraud requiring extremely fast and secure payment processing in AWS and Go. I have mentored dozens of software engineers in their career goals and coding problems.

Fun fact: I lived in Thailand for 2 years and am fluent in speaking, reading and writing Thai.
