I'm Matt — a hands-on engineer and full-stack developer with deep experience building production-grade software systems, automating infrastructure, and delivering scalable cloud-native platforms. I specialize in developer tools, internal platforms, and SaaS applications that balance performance, security, and maintainability.

- 🌱 I'm currently learning more about Effect-TS and advanced OpenTelemetry instrumentation in Next.js
- 👯 I'm looking to collaborate on open-source tooling for platform engineering and DX
- 💬 Ask me about Go, TypeScript, Terraform, observability, or building SaaS platforms from scratch
- 📫 How to reach me: LinkedIn, Twitter, or here on GitHub
- ⚡ Fun fact: I've traveled to 49 out of 50 U.S. states (just missing Hawaii!)
Currently serving as Principal Engineer at Terramate, where I'm working on enhancing the Terramate CLI to help teams define infrastructure more quickly and consistently as part of our mission to make Infrastructure as Code accessible for everyone and accelerate IaC adoption across organizations of all sizes.
Previously served as Principal Engineer at Cloud Posse, where I contributed to open-source tooling, delivered large-scale platform initiatives, and launched Atmos Pro—a SaaS control plane for GitOps-based infrastructure management.
Former founding engineer at Gruntwork, where I helped build Terragrunt and Terratest into industry-standard tools for infrastructure automation.
I bring the execution focus of an IC with the perspective of a founder or CTO—able to dive into the weeds without losing sight of strategic outcomes.
Thanks for stopping by!
