Part engineer, part devops, part mentor, part manager. I enjoy problems at scale; whether it's requests, databases, or teams. I have a strong belief that a good engineer is someone who has good coding practices but also understands the entire technology stack and how it should influence their implementation. Knowledge of the production environment is critical: "it works on my machine" doesn't cut it.
