What I'm up to

What am I doing?

If we haven't caught up in a while, this is what I'm up to these days:

Working

I am a Software Engineer at Bluestem Brands (Fingerhut, eCommerce). I started with the web self service product team, we work on user experiences like applying for credit, tracking orders, and scheduling payments. Now I've moved to the shop team, where we integrate recommendation engines as well as add features to search and product pages. I moonlight with the platform team using Docker to ease test environment pain.

I'm also doing some contract work with Xylo, a startup that's making a service to manage the daily activities of music programs. We are using my peculiar combination of music knowledge and software skills to enhance the experience for program directors and students.
