Stack
Full stack, with the back end as home.
- Day to day
- C# and .NET on the server, TypeScript and React in front of it.
- Data
- Postgres, MSSQL and Redis — schemas, migrations, and the occasional query plan.
- Distributed
- Service Bus, Kafka and SQS. Queues, retries, and making things idempotent.
- Cloud
- AWS by preference, Azure by experience. Docker and GitHub Actions around both.
- Lately
- Agentic tooling, RAG, and running small open models locally.
Mostly I believe in picking the right tool for the job.
