About

This is a software engineering blog covering my interests and ways of thinking about various topics of being an IC or IC leader. I’m interested in problem solving, code understandability, design patterns, code architecture, system architecture, large scale failure modes, distributed systems algorithms, teaching, learning how other people think, figuring out how to make complex systems easier for others to understand, and being a leader.

About me

I work with a team to design, build, maintain, and operationally support some critical internal services that power the cloud. I regularly work with and influence my team and broader organization. I spend a lot of time and effort influencing and teaching others how to think about solving problems. If you have met me, you probably know I have a lot to say and I love to teach. I hope this blog can be extension of that and cover the wide range of topics that are in my head or that frequently come up in some form in my day to day work.

For coding, I primarily write Rust and Java, with a little bit of Go sprinkled in.

All opinions are my own.

What is “Fridge” Dev?

I wanted a cool name, might change it later.
