I'm a Canadian software maker that's hacked on open source projects like Jocko, Timecop, and Mocha; and built several startups from the ground up, including Segment and Confluent. I currently work atOscilar.

I've mostly worked at new startups, working on many problems: distributed systems, infrastructure, back-end, front-end, mobile, tooling. I prefer distributed systems, infrastructure and back-end applied to big data problems.

I authored a book on building distributed systems using Go, published by Pragmatic Bookshelf. The book walks you through building a distributed commit log from scratch, step-by-step, from nothing to deployment.
