I architect global-scale distributed systems and high-performance infrastructure. I designed, bootstrapped and continue to lead the managed blackbox monitoring infrastructure for Google Distributed Cloud (GDC), an air-gapped Sovereign Cloud solution. Additionally, I drive projects on Frontend L4 Packet Processing at the edge of Google's network, managing global peering ingress and planetary-scale user traffic. I specialize in Distributed Systems, System Architecture, Go, C++, and Software Defined Networking (SDN), with a deep interest in the intersection of systems and security.
