our team

With more than 12 years of experience in software engineering, I'm joining Hypothesis as a frontend developer. Previously I worked for almost five years at adidas, and before that, I was involved in everything tech-related at a couple of startups. For me, the key for every engineering team's success is "people". Technology is just our tool to solve problems. I'm also an open source enthusiast, maintaining a couple of projects of my own, and contributing to other projects as much as I can.
