👋 I’m Max.
I build software
and the teams behind it.

I’m a Staff Software Engineering Manager at GitHub, where I work on planning and tracking. Away from work, I build tools,write songs, and collect more hot sauce than a reasonable person should.

I mostly write Elixir, Go and Ruby, maybe some TypeScript when the project calls for it. I also know my way around React, Vue, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS, Astro, Phoenix, and Rails.
