About Me¶

Staff+ platform engineer, nearly twenty years in.

Now¶

Nearly two years in as DevOps Tech Lead at Lincoln Loop. Embedding with established companies in the energy sector, leading DevOps for AI-health startups — Terraform across AWS, Azure, and on-prem at production scale. Also one of the engineers behind AppPack, Lincoln Loop's platform for simplifying AWS deployments.

Wayfair, 2015–2022¶

Seven years through the scale from ~$700M to ~$12B. Founding member of three platform teams there (InfraNext, Python Platforms, Dev Acceleration). Built the Docker image system that became the bedrock of every Python service — the platform grew to 900+ engineers. Early bets on Backstage, Buildkite, Kubernetes, Keycloak, and Artifactory, years before any of them were obvious.

On AI¶

All-in on agentic AI engineering. Claude Code is my daily driver. Built agentctl, a Go + tmux harness around it that lets me run multiple sessions in parallel across engagements.

Beyond work¶

Vermont. Mountain biking, snowboarding, hiking with my kids. Working remote since 2008. Tinkering with Linux since I was about ten or eleven — at this point, working in the open is less a value than muscle memory.
