I do my best work on teams that treat engineering as reasoning under uncertainty — where decisions get written down, tradeoffs get named, and failure is a learning opportunity rather than something to hide. I'm happiest owning a hard backend problem end to end: the distributed system, the data migration, the integration that has to not break. The case studies on this site walk through exactly how I think about those problems.
