Kia ora, I'm Jordan

About

I'm a developer experienced in distributed systems, scalable APIs, micro(mini)services, cloud infrastructure, tearing apart monoliths and integrations. I dabble in a bit of UI work now and then too. Throw me a problem and I'll try to solve it. I believe that a deeper understanding of the stack allows one to architect higher quality/more robust solutions and diagnose/solve bugs/issues more efficiently. I revel in building applications/systems from the ground up as well as maintaining and enhancing pre-existing systems.

This is a zone to share Internet-powered/related projects.
