Software design engineer in New York City. I design the interface and then build it. Senior/staff IC by scope, founding engineer by habit, and a founder — the current company is Mantafarm.
Most of what I make is dense: tools for people who already know the domain.
Before that: ten years of hardware including contract design engineering inside Alphabet on Google Geo and Project Moonboot, four manufacturing operations built for clients, and a batteries venture whose seaweed-derived constituents became Mantafarm.
