Linux, Kernel, and Systems Engineering
Linux-first engineering background with practical work in kernel modules, drivers, low-level troubleshooting, and performance-minded systems design.
Senior Software Engineer with 26+ years of experience designing and delivering distributed systems across aerospace, telecommunications, and federal environments. My background is rooted in C/C++, Java, Python, Rust, and C#, with additional depth across other programming languages used to solve platform, backend, embedded, automation, and full-stack engineering problems. I work comfortably from low-level systems programming and kernel-adjacent engineering through system architecture, service design, and modern cloud delivery, including multi-architecture and cross-platform environments that demand performance, maintainability, and long-term operational resilience.
For hiring teams: I bring strong discipline in the SDLC, Agile delivery, compliance-driven engineering, and sound technical execution shaped by regulated and mission-focused programs. My work emphasizes secure, maintainable design using proven design patterns, clear architectural boundaries, and practical engineering standards that support compliance, traceability, scalability, and team velocity. I am also experienced in securing modern web applications end to end, including both frontend and backend surfaces, while designing reliable systems around APIs, data platforms, and messaging workflows. I am especially effective in roles that need deep software craftsmanship combined with platform thinking, cross-functional leadership, and the ability to translate complex requirements into reliable systems across cloud, infrastructure, and multi-architecture environments.
