Software Engineer
Hi, I'm Michael.
Building software that people
actually want to use.
About
I'm a software engineer who cares deeply about the craft — writing clean code, building fast systems, and shipping products that feel good to use.
Over the past six years I've worked across the stack — from distributed backend systems to polished front-end interfaces — at startups and scale-ups alike. I'm most at home at the intersection of engineering and product.
When I'm not writing code, I'm usually reading, running, or experimenting with side projects that may or may not see the light of day.
What I care about
- 01
Simplicity over cleverness
The best code is code someone else can read and extend without asking questions.
- 02
Shipping beats perfection
Real products in users' hands will always teach you more than another planning cycle.
- 03
Design is engineering
Good software isn't just functional — it's considered. The two disciplines are inseparable.
- 04
Ownership end-to-end
I care about the problem, not just the code. From architecture to the last pixel.
