About

I have spent a decade turning "can this even be built?" into systems that carry millions of users without flinching. Across two exits and a dozen-odd 0-to-1 products, the pattern held: get the architecture right early, keep the team small and sharp, ship before the market moves. I care less about stack religion than about whether the thing holds up at 2am under real load.
