San Francisco

This place is dope. I'm doing Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, deep in backend DevOps land, building tools for other engineers to make their jobs easier, speed up their workflows, reduce our cloud spend, and automate our pipeline. Everyone is super-nice and there are a lot of office dogs.

They didn't Provide An Office For Me

This beast consumed some of the shattered pieces of MedHelp after it was sold off by Aptus Health. It was a dark time. I escaped. I met a lot of good and talented people while there. Some of them even managed to stay and thrive. Most didn't. I'd probably be a little more circumspect about my account if more of my managers hadn't left too.
