Now

What I'm focused on

What I'm up to these days: work, learning, and life away from the keyboard. This is a now page.

Work
I recently joined Send Payments as a Senior Software Engineer, working full stack. Backend, frontend, microservices, and the DevOps that ties it all together. I build and run services on AWS from start to finish.
Loc
Based in Central Luzon, Philippines, working remotely.
Learning
Distributed systems, mostly the ways they break. What happens when a node lies, a message shows up twice, or the network just quietly drops it.
Building
Crumbtrail. Snap your meal and share it with friends. The side project I keep coming back to.
Reading
For Whom the Bell Tolls, Hemingway. Taking my time with it.
Life
Games and family, mostly. And every so often, an afternoon of doing nothing in the park.
