All Software, All the Time

My primary work focuses for the past several years have been:

  • Fixing system performance problems (i.e. reducing machine utilization, making things way faster)
  • Shipping projects – It’s not interesting if you don’t finish on time and ship it
  • Leading developers to do things that they have not done before
  • Architecting solutions to complex problems that are simple and low-risk to build
