About

I'm a Senior Software Engineer with ~5 years of experience, where I build and operate large-scale data pipelines that power order reporting, personalization, and experimentation across Target's digital commerce platform. At Target, I've owned production data systems end-to-end — from designing ingestion pipelines and schema migrations to debugging production incidents, renewing certificates, and building observability so teams can move faster with confidence. My day-to-day spans the full stack of a modern data platform — Kafka consumers, Spark jobs on Hadoop (BigRed3), ClickHouse ingestion, Oracle write pipelines, and the observability layer that ties it all together. I enjoy working at the intersection of reliability, performance, and observability — building systems that are not just fast, but debuggable and trustworthy at scale. Outside of code, I enjoy breaking down complex systems and making them understandable — whether that's writing clear documentation, doing technical discovery, or explaining trade-offs to stakeholders. Tech I work with regularly: Kafka · Spark · ClickHouse · Oracle · Micronaut · Kotlin · Java · Python · HDFS · Druid · Docker · Vela CI · TAP (Kubernetes) · Grafana Currently open to Senior Software Engineer / Staff Engineer roles — particularly in data infrastructure, streaming systems, or backend platform engineering. 📩 Feel free to conne
