About Me
I don’t have the perfect title for what I do. Backend development, reliability engineering, infrastructure, DevOps—they all apply. But I like calling it Sustainability Engineering: making apps less frustrating, more reliable, and making the whole production feel less chaotic... and more sustainable.
Here’s a graph—alert volume dropped by more than 90%.
I work with Rails, Sidekiq, RabbitMQ, Docker, Ansible, Postgres, Prometheus, and Grafana.
I like fixing things.
A Rails app was misbehaving. Best case: five minutes of painfully slow responses. Worst case: manual restarts.
A long-running query in a thread was orphaning connections. I removed the threaded code, adjusted timeouts, and added a connection reaper. Alerts dropped by 90%.
