Maestro writeup: https://maestro-framework.github.io/

------------------

When I learned software engineering, I learned the fundamentals from the ground up. Because of my solid foundation, I can learn any skill very quickly and understand it wholly along the way.

I recently created Maestro, a framework for rapid iteration of serverless orchestration workflows using AWS Lambda and AWS step functions. It enables developers to easily create whole workflows and deploys and tears down the associated AWS resources ~60x faster than the closest competitor, AWS SAM. I highly recommend that you read the writeup at https://maestro-framework.github.io/.

Some perks of hiring me

==============

I'm a bit younger than most, but only because I worked my ass off (smartly too--I didn't waste time) full time 60+ hours per week for extended periods of time. So I'm smart, have energy, and am an extremely quick learner (as described above).

------------------

I'm looking for software engineering roles, preferably infrastructure or backend, and full stack is also great.
