Welcome to my GitHub page!

Also known by my nicknames "lanejoshlane" and "Fast Lane", I'm a Platform Engineering Director with a rich background in tech and leadership. Based in Oakland, CA, I've had an impactful journey through companies like EasyPost, Fastly, Engine Yard. From Maine, I cut my teeth in the Boston technology scene at EMC, HubSpot and Brontes3D (now part of 3M). I hold a profound interest in building robust technology solutions and developing agile, effective teams.

🚀Leadership: Steering platform engineering at a logistics technology startup, focusing on creating scalable and efficient software architectures.🔧Technologies I'm Passionate About:

• Rust: Delving deep into its systems programming capabilities, high performance services and stable tools.
• Ruby: Building APIs and software solutions with an elegant language.
• Lua: Exploring its simplicity and effectiveness in embedded systems, largely throughneovim.

🌱I’m currently learning:

• Advanced Rust programming techniques and best practices.
• Lua, focusing on its integration with larger systems for better performance.

• dotfiles: My configuration settings for Arch, CentOS, and Darwin. (Frequent updates, stability may vary)
• cistern: Ruby API client framework. An early attempt to create an RPC-like interface for any API that encourages testability.
• fog-aws: AWS module for the 'fog' Ruby gem. I've largely stepped back from this.
• zendesk2: A Zendesk API V2 client using Cistern.

🌟neovim: I am a proud sponsor of neovim, supporting the advancement of this vital open source project.
