I'm Brandin. Making development smoother, so ideas ship faster.
About
I spend most of my time building full-stack apps, mainly with Next.js, but I also work with Go and C#, often within microservice architectures when it makes sense. I write a lot of code, review PRs, and stay involved in architecture, tooling, and technical decisions.
I help plan and build what's next, making sure we balance customer needs, design timelines, and technical trade-offs. I'm in sprint planning, retros, and daily standups, and I handle DevOps when needed—setting up CI/CD, testing, and deployments for cloud and private servers.
I'm always open to trying out new tech if it contributes to our goal of keeping things efficient and maintainable. I try to focus on delivering real value instead of over-engineering things that don't move the needle.
More than anything, I believe teams work best when people feel comfortable learning, making mistakes, and tackling hard problems without second-guessing themselves.
