Full-stack developer. Former air traffic controller. Civil engineer.
Civil engineering taught me tolerances and failure modes; air traffic control taught me real-time decisions under pressure. I now build full-stack systems with the same discipline.
Engineering, then air traffic control, now software. Different jobs, the same discipline.
Learned to think in load paths, tolerances and what happens when systems fail under stress. Buildings don't get a second chance — neither does production.
Sequencing aircraft taught me to keep dozens of moving objects safely apart in real time. Latency, queuing, conflict detection — turns out it's all the same job.
Building systems with the same discipline. Currently shipping a FinTech transaction-monitoring platform: ML fraud detection and a real-time alert engine.
Sales enablement platform built cloud-native on Azure — Entra ID SSO, vector search over sales playbooks, realtime voice AI, Bicep-provisioned infrastructure and health-gated CI/CD with automatic rollback.
Browser-based Docker GUI for Linux that drives the native Docker Engine — no Electron shell, no VM. Container workflows, remote host targeting and live logs.
