πŸ’Ό Currently Seeking

Remote roles where I can:

  • βœ… Build ML systems for global users (not just SF)
  • βœ… Optimize for constraints (better engineering)
  • βœ… Write docs people actually understand
  • βœ… Contribute to meaningful open source

Target: Companies serious about "democratize [X]" globally
Automattic β€’ Zapier β€’ Canonical
