Backend-led tech lead. Six years shipping distributed systems that stay calm under pressure.

01 — AboutHS

Tech lead · six years

I lead engineering teams and ship the unglamorous parts — the migrations, the queues, the P95s — so the product feels calm.

Currently

I’m a backend-led tech lead with six years across B2B commerce, health-tech, logistics and SaaS. Right now that means the AI layer of a diamond marketplace: RAG-backed AI search, a ranking engine and a support chat, shipped on the same backend that moves the inventory.

Most of the work is the part nobody photographs: migrations that ship, queues that don’t drop, P95s that come down and stay down, retrieval that returns the right stone. Backend first. Product always.

How I work

  1. 01Think in systemsModel the failure paths first. Make the happy path boring.
  2. 02Stay close to productArchitecture matters when it changes what a customer can do.
  3. 03Leave a clear trailUseful logs, explicit decisions, migrations teams can trust.
