🤖 I build engineering organizations
I'm an engineering leader, technical advisor, and software engineer. Most recently, I've been focused on RL environments, human data, and the infrastructure behind frontier AI development. I've led team from 5 to 250 in total headcount and love the opportunity to lead others - and let them take the credit.
💻 I'm still an engineer at heart
I've been building software professionally for nearly 20 years and leading engineering teams and organizations for the last 9. These days, I spend more of my time setting technical direction, building teams, and creating the systems that help engineers do their best work - but I still like getting my hands dirty.
🚀 I advise and build outside of my full-time work, too
I currently work with Raise Financial as a fractional CTO and advisor. Over the years, I've also worked across startups, consulting, fintech, healthcare, intelligence, entertainment, privacy, and large-scale engineering organizations.
🌐 Open source has shaped a lot of how I think about engineering
I previously served as the Federated Learning Team Lead and Head of Engineering for OpenMined and was one of the community's early members. As such, supporting the open-source movement is near and dear to my heart.
