## About
- 15+ years building web applications, all remote, across time zones.
- Core focus: high-load systems in Ruby on Rails, PostgreSQL, and Redis, with Hotwire front
  ends — keeping them fast and dependable as traffic grows.
- DevOps end to end: AWS (S3, Route 53, Bedrock), Kamal, and Docker with zero-downtime deploys.
- Builds AI agents into production apps — MCP servers, multi-provider LLM orchestration, and a
  personal agent gateway (Hermes) that runs his infrastructure and repos from chat.
- Bitcoin: on-chain indexing and metrics, plus algorithmic trading on crypto perpetuals.
