About
I'm a backend and systems engineer. I joined Clipster, a platform that connects creators with paid brand clip campaigns, in January 2025 as its first engineer. I built the backend, the data model, and the Discord integration end to end. For the first four months I was the only engineer; the team has since expanded.
I work in Go, PostgreSQL, and Rust, and keep what I ship observable in Grafana. Before Clipster I built a Discord-native music-campaign platform as a software engineer.
I'm open to backend roles and freelance work.
The work
Three systems, from problem to production. Each write-up follows the same order: problem, approach, hardest part, outcome.
- Clipster Backend, data model, and Discord integration for a creator clip-campaign platform. Built as the company's first engineer.
- Sketch Media A Discord-native platform for creator music campaigns. Submission to payout, no web client.
- Concert Ticketing Academic project A working concert ticket sales platform, built as a school capstone. The interesting part is stopping two buyers from holding one seat.
