Location: Portland, Oregon

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: No

Technologies: Primarily backend engineering - APIs, databases (SQL and NoSQL), making complex systems work together. Enough of a full-stack dev (React, etc) to build personal apps for myself and my loved ones, but it's not my specialty. I'm expert in Typescript / Javascript, conversant in Ruby and Python, happy to learn other languages.

I'm a backend engineer with ~7 years of experience, most recently in the Risk division at Stripe for 3.5 years. On my teams, I've been known for making myself an expert on complex code and data, for being an excellent debugger and reviewer, for improving efficiency (on my last team, I took our core cron job's runtime from 8 hours to 15 minutes), and for working to invest in technical foundations.

I'm especially interested in complex technical problems, working with data and databases, and gaining new skills.
