Hello! I'm Cryptobyte, a lifelong learner dedicated to producing high-quality code that's scalable and secure by design. I've been writing code since robotics class in high school and have explored computers in every way even diving deep into hardware design and architecture as a way to get better at writing high-quality software. I've written programs in dozens of programming languages from NASM Assembly to TypeScript and have a deep fundamental understanding of how code interacts with the machines it runs on. As a result of my long career and love for all things computer I bring technical skills with a strong foundation to the table and can assist with improving performance, reliability and security within existing projects as well as laying a solid scalable foundation for new ones.
With over 14 years as a Software Engineer, largely focused on startups, I have a wide variety of skills including programming, devops, database administration, systems administration and team leadership.
