Architecture & orchestration
Making complexity click.
Resilient systems, from the big picture to the last detail.

Distributed systems, durable workflows and the products that sit on top of them. Currently architecting at Aurix.
Scroll01 Philosophy
I design high-availability distributed systems, then stay close enough to the code to make them real. Golang and Temporal underneath. Next.js and Django on top. AWS holding it all together.
Whiteboard → productionGolang → pixelsBig picture → last detail
02 The stack
Five layers.
One mind.
Most engineers pick a floor. I work the whole building — from the pixel someone taps to the container it runs on.
- L1
Interface
Where people touch the system.
Next.js · React · React Native
- L2
Services
APIs with clear contracts and boring failure modes.
Golang · Django · Node.js
- L3
Orchestration
Long-running business logic that survives restarts.
Temporal · Trigger.dev · Queues
- L4
Data
Relational models that tell the truth.
Prisma · Relational modeling · MongoDB
- L5
Cloud
The ground everything else stands on.
AWS · Terraform · Containers · CI/CD
03 The system
Built to
survive failure.
- 01
Ingest
Requests, events and uploads. Validate early, accept fast, never lose a message.
- 02
Orchestrate
Durable Temporal workflows in Go. Retries, timeouts and compensation are designed in, not bolted on.
- 03
Persist
Careful relational models, secure data flows and migrations that don’t wake anyone up.
- 04
Observe
If you can’t see it, you can’t run it. Metrics, traces and CI/CD that make 3 a.m. quiet.

Three problems I put my hands on — from the systems you don’t see to the experiences you do.

Let’s build what lasts.
A hard problem, a system that has to scale, or a product that needs a builder who can also draw the blueprint? Good. Let’s talk.
