I’m a full-stack product engineer who owns the entire feature: product decisions, backend architecture, and a polished user experience. I love building products that people actually use, and I like to sweat the details.

I’ve founded and led at successful, venture-backed startups, but these days I focus on the part I’ve always loved most: shipping great software end-to-end.

Where I’m a Great Fit

I'm happiest building 0→1 features, the kind where you start with a problem and end with working software. Recent work includes AI-powered content generation systems, customer dashboards, and full stack features where backend + frontend must fit together seamlessly.

I can also fix what's not working. I run experiments, figure out why conversion is low, and iterate until the feature actually delivers. Most of my work has been on full-stack web and mobile apps.

Not a fit: Maintenance-only roles, pure PM work, pre-funded/validation-stage teams, agencies needing staff augmentation.

Background

I've been a founder, technical leader, and IC engineer at venture-backed startups for over a decade:

• Co-founder/CTO at Wonderschool (a16z + First Round Capital)
• Co-founder/CTO at Soldsie (First Round Capital, acquired)
• Co-founder at 17FEET design studio (acquired by Google)
• Head of Product at Primer microschools (Founders Fund + Khosla)

Now I'm looking for hands-on IC work where I can focus on building rather than managing teams.

How I Work

I like to jump in and start building right away. I'll read your code, look at designs, and talk with your team and customers. I prefer working in small, high-trust environments where taste and engineering quality matter. I write clean code, make good product calls, and move quickly without chaos.

Stacks I’ve Shipped With

I've worked in a range of codebases and can pick up new stacks quickly.

Frontend: Next.js, Angular, React Native, Flutter

Backend: Rails, Phoenix, Django, custom AI services

Infra: PostgreSQL, Redis, Supabase, Stripe, Cloudflare, Vercel, Testflight
