Where I'm headed

I'm a senior Rails & Go engineer, and I'm deliberately taking my craft closer to the metal — toward distributed systems, C, and embedded. This is the direction, anchored to what I've already built. Not a wish list — a trajectory.

Updated July 2026

Now

What I'm actively building and doing.

  • Senior Rails & Go backend work

    Multi-tenant SaaS, financial integrations, PostgreSQL under load — full-time, contract, or advisory.

  • Shipping my own products

    Constat (B2B bug capture), Railyard (deploy platform), Recall (iOS audiobook study app, live on the App Store).

  • Writing

    Turning the real systems I build into posts — the honest parts included.

Next

Where I'm deepening — building on threads that are already in my work.

  • Distributed systems, deeper

    Railyard already runs a Rails control plane driving Go agents over gRPC. I want to go further down this path — consensus, coordination, failure modes.

  • C

    The foundation under both systems internals and embedded. Coming from Ruby and Go, it's the layer I want to actually understand, not just call into.

Later

On the horizon — where the systems path meets the metal.

  • Embedded & IoT

    I've already shipped astronomical prayer-time math to a Garmin watch — offline, power-aware GPS, from first principles. I want to do more of this close-to-the-hardware work.

  • Drones

    Where embedded, C, and control systems come together in something you can hold. The fun end of the roadmap.
