I’m Anthony, a staff engineer with fifteen years building products people actually use—from FDA-cleared medical devices to mobile apps with tens of thousands of users.
I’ve spent my career learning what works (and what doesn’t) when building products with teams. I’ve scaled startups from 4 people to 80, ramped up on unfamiliar tech stacks while turning around troubled projects, and mentored engineers through all kinds of career progressions.
What You’ll Find Here
This isn’t another tech blog about distributed systems and algorithm optimization. I’m writing about:
- Product engineering - Building things that solve real problems for real people
- Team dynamics - What makes engineering cultures work (and what breaks them)
- Lessons learned - Hard-won insights from fifteen years in the field
- The messy reality - What actually happens between the architecture diagrams and shipped code
Why Now?
I’ve always believed that writing crystallizes thinking. This blog is where I’ll share what I’ve figured out, what I’m still learning, and the lessons that stuck with me.
If you’re interested in building products, growing teams, or just learning what works in the real world of software engineering—welcome. I’m glad you’re here.
More soon.
—Anthony
