Hello!

I’m Joel, a software developer and systems engineer. I currently build and operate data processing pipelines using Python, and occasionally provide network operations and Linux sysadmin support.

I love learning and solving tough problems, and when I’m not at work or on a trail, I’m often tinkering with my homelab or trying to pick up a new programming language.

More things I do

💻 Software development

• Data processing systems design
• Python application development and CI/CD
• Application containerization and orchestration

🌐 Network engineering

• Routing, switching, and config automation

✈️ Flying

• Flight Instructor (CFI), with Commercial license (CPL) and instrument rating; I mostly fly for fun these days.

⛺ Outdoorsy stuff

• Hiking and OpenStreetMap contributing; I map local trails them so others can find them too.
• Skiing
• Landscape photography
