Background
Currently CTO of Leadtruffle, an AI powered saas that handles inbound leads over sms and voice for local businesses. Formerly CTO of Bounty, a VC funded startup where I scaled the backend to handle hundreds of thousands of users. (Bounty was sold to gen.video in summer 2024). Previously a tech lead consulting for PwC, and a senior engineer at companies such as Dharma and Target.
My work has most recently involved managing engineering teams offshore & onshore as well as building out the infrastructure & backend architecture for a high growth startup.
As an engineer I'm deeply experienced in scaling and parallelizing typescript based lambdas in AWS, designing and building out backend systems, crafting database schemas, and generally an all around experienced programmer.
Consulting work
I'm available for consulting work. Want help with something I'm an expert in implementing? (Backend node.js on AWS, SMS, LLMs) You can book a call with me here.
