Hey, I’m Patrick, a product-minded software engineer. I have a passion to solve problems for people and make things run smoothly. I take ownership of understanding the big picture, so we can iteratively deliver whatever outcome the customer really needs. I know it’s important to collaborate with devs and non-devs, because it means I can learn from the entire team and build on everyone’s strengths. I care about engineering excellence, but I also know when to be pragmatic.

I’m primarily skilled in Ruby on Rails / React / Postgres / Sidekiq, but I adapt quickly to whatever tool helps us ship impactful features and fixes. I’m comfortable doing dev/architecture work with LLMs or without. I love investigating and solving production bugs. I’m interested in small/medium sized companies that rely on ownership (not heavy process) to delight customers. If that resonates with you, I’d love to join your team.

Outside of work, I enjoy music, nature, and mountain biking with my family. I do my engineering work “heartily, as for the Lord”, but I also keep a good work-life balance with a weekly Shabbat. I like to tinker with hobby electronics and home improvement projects.
