Product Owner · Senior Dev · DevOps – a Salteño in Cleveland

15+ years at the same company, wearing many hats – from writing PHP at 3am to managing UNIX development teams across two countries, to owning product roadmaps and making hard prioritization calls. This blog is where I share what I actually learn, break, fix, and build along the way. No fluff, no tutorials you’ve already seen. Real stuff.
