I build solutions when I find gaps in processes, workflows, or anything that could work better. If it involves tech,my answer is always yes.

The day job

At Amazon Web Services I work on Lambda and Serverless as the team's Subject Matter Expert. Most days that means sitting with a customer's architecture until the actual problem shows itself, usually somewhere across API Gateway, Step Functions, DynamoDB, EventBridge, Connect or Bedrock. The interesting cases are rarely the ones the ticket describes.

02

The build habit

The rest of the time I'm building. If a workflow is annoying enough that I notice it twice, I'd rather fix it than route around it. That's where the cross-device chat widget came from, and the browser extension, and the Raycast tooling, and a pile of userscripts. None of it is glamorous. All of it saves the team real hours.

03

Off the clock

Outside work I drive the coast road near Vizag in a Mussel Blue V40 Cross Country. That colour is where this site's palette comes from. I also poke at Swift and Kotlin with no particular goal, and lose weekends to whatever I read about on a Tuesday.

Most of this runs inside AWS, so there's no public repo to link to. Open a row to read what each one does.

    Amazon Web Services (AWS)

    Subject Matter Expert on AWS Lambda and Serverless. I work with enterprise customers on designing, troubleshooting and tuning serverless architectures across Lambda, API Gateway, Step Functions, DynamoDB, Connect and Bedrock. Alongside case work I build internal tooling for the team: browser extensions, scripts and automation that cut out repetitive work. I also design AI agent contact flows on Amazon Connect and Bedrock.
