hi, it's ming.

he / him

I'm a software developer from upstate New York, currently based in the Salt Lake valley.

 

how i build

I (clearly) am not biased towards frontend development, but I still believe that user experiences should be intuitive and logically coherent.

I believe that backend services should scale horizontally and support zero-downtime deployments.

I believe that platform teams should build tooling that promotes engineer velocity and creativity.

I believe that engineers are far more intelligent than we often give them credit for and that the primary role of management, process, and training ought to be to support the engineer.

I believe that the best code is the code that's serving production traffic.

 

ask me about

How my team built a workflow that allows engineers to manipulate PII while minimizing direct exposure to it.

How my team built a solution to allow a single oncall engineer to monitor integrations with 11,000+ financial institutions.

How my team built an authentication/authorization model using microservice architecture.

How my team built a constant-time presentation layer on top of an event log.

 

let's chat

Now that you've gotten to know me, it's only fitting that you tell me a little about yourself.
