"The best software is invisible. When users think about your software, something's wrong. Four decades taught me this: solve problems so seamlessly that technology disappears."

Director of Software Engineering

Full-stack, embedded to cloud

"Every line of code is technical debt. The best developers write the least code. If you can solve it without code, that's the better solution."

"Scale breaks everything. What works at 100 users fails at 10,000. Sustainable growth means building systems that don't need you to hold them together."
