I build production media, SaaS, and Web3 platforms from greenfield architecture through delivery.

What I'm looking for

I'm open to fully remote work across US, European, or APAC hours, especially greenfield builds where I can partner with a strong product or business lead and own delivery end to end.

At Gala Music, I built the audio/video player used for all platform music playback and connected every player event to Kafka for downstream analytics, lifecycle, and attribution use.

I shipped NFT-ownership-gated playback, crypto paywall mechanics, and creator earnings, where real-time entitlement checks directly affected revenue. I also built ingestion, reporting, API, and integration layers connecting encoders, distribution platforms, third-party services, and internal operations.

At FRMS Technologies, I built and operated cloud platforms for La-Z-Boy, In-N-Out Burgers, and PMTMedia.tv as a one-person engineering organization. I owned AWS infrastructure, media-processing workflows, client delivery, uptime, cost, deployments, and customer onboarding.

I've also led product and engineering for RealWave, improved Mad Dogg Athletics' ecommerce conversion by 75%, and turned Crownpeak Technology's Client Solutions division profitable within six months. I do my best work on greenfield builds alongside a strong product or business lead.
