Hi, I'm Steve!

I'm a senior software engineer at LIDP Consulting Services. I lead a team dedicated to improving the infrastructure and architecture of our super flexible policy admin system for life insurance and annuity carriers.

I know... riveting!

I'm also a former audio engineer and used to develop finance applications at Citi.

I like solving project euler problems, dabbling in audio plugin development in C++ with iPlug2, and game development in Java with libGDX.

On the frontend, I'm very interested in htmx. For more complex web apps I like Svelte.

complexity very, very bad

I'm currently fascinated with solving the problems common in enterprise software. I love learning about how to design large distributed systems.

This site's name is from Gene Wolfe's Book of the New Sun, one of my favorite book series.
