Chief Technology Officer at Yesty I am a seasoned technology leader with a career spanning global tech giants and high-growth platforms. My journey has taken me from the foundational engineering floors of Nokia and Siemens to the scale-up challenges of Shopify. Today, I lead the technical vision at Yesty, focusing on building resilient systems and high-performing engineering cultures.
I thrive at the intersection of complex infrastructure and human systems. My "bread and butter" includes:
Distributed Systems: Building for scale, reliability, and eventual consistency.
Database Internals: I have a deep fascination with how data is stored, indexed, and retrieved.
Engineering Management: Cultivating environments where engineers can do their best work through mentorship, clear strategy, and robust processes.
I believe in continuous learning, regardless of seniority. Right now, I’m diving deep into:
Formal Methods: Exploring TLA+ and logic-based approaches to verify system correctness.
Rust: Getting hands-on with memory safety and high-performance systems programming.
When I'm not architecting systems or leading teams, you’ll find me:
Reading: I’m an avid reader of technical books—from classic papers to the latest in systems design.
Hardware Hacking: My "maker" side comes out through Home Automation, where I tinker with micro:bit and ESP32 development to make my living space a bit smarter.
