VT Sports Solutions · Software Engineering & AI Services

Software for sports professionals, built one staff at a time.

I embed with broadcasters, coaches, and analysts and ship the tool that actually saves the five hours nobody else will build.

About

What would you do with...

Every engagement starts the same way: I sit with your staff and ask what's repetitive, what's slow, and what's one mistake away from a bad day. Then I build the thing that makes it go away.

Most of my clients aren't technical, and that's the point. They want someone they can trust to handle the software — without them having to think about databases, APIs, or deployment — so they can focus on the work that actually matters.

Generic tools weren't built for your workflow. In the AI era, every staff deserves software that fits exactly how they operate — not the other way around.

The scaffolding is easy. The architecture is hard. AI can stand up a working prototype in an afternoon — but it can't tell you whether your data model survives the second use case, or whether three integrations will quietly corrupt each other under real load. That's still the same craft I came up doing — at internet scale, in production, on systems people actually depended on.

Track record

01

AdRoll Backend Engineer, category-defining adtech

On the engineering team that productized retargeting — a new category of advertising. Pixel tracking and cookie sync at billions of events per day, real-time bidding under a 100ms budget, and the distributed systems plumbing that made any of it possible at internet scale.

02

Datadog Growth Engineering, pre-IPO

Wired the marketing stack — Segment, attribution, lifecycle tooling — into the product itself, so growth and product spoke the same language. Also partnered with the research org on whitepapers covering large-scale data processing on Spark, Luigi, and the warehouse.

Various Startups Product Engineer & PM

Several early-stage companies, wearing both hats. I know how to stand up a production system from scratch — the 0-to-1 work where there's no platform team to lean on, and the choices you make in week one decide what breaks in year two. My specialty inside that: the data and analytics stack that powers the product and the C-suite BI layer reading from it — one source of truth, two very different audiences.
