What I'm thinking about​

I spend most of my engineering time working on platform problems: the infrastructure, tooling, and reusable services that let product teams move fast without reinventing the wheel every sprint. Over the past 13 years, I've done this across workflow orchestration, commerce platforms, subscription systems, and observability infrastructure.

Right now I'm heads-down on a cloud-native workflow platform at Blue Yonder — building multi-tenant Flowable-based execution on top of Azure, with serious attention to governance, security, and developer ergonomics. It's the kind of problem I find most interesting: the systems work is hard, but the harder part is making something that other engineers want to use.

What I'll write about​

• Platform engineering patterns — what it actually looks like to build internal developer platforms at scale
• Distributed systems in practice — lessons from production, not textbook theory
• Workflow orchestration — Flowable, BPMN, and the decisions that matter
• Observability — OpenTelemetry, structured logging, and making systems understandable
• Java & Spring Boot — practical patterns for building reliable backend services

I'll keep posts focused and concrete. If a post can be a paragraph, it will be.
