The Loop for everything around the resume.
Staff/Principal engineer focused on making complex systems understandable and change achievable. I’m Mike. I build resilient systems, unblock teams, and make legacy platforms safe to change. Think of this page as the Loop: a central hub where the lines connect to writing, interviews, and the longer arc behind the work.
Chicago‑style software is opinionated, practical, and built to last. Same deal here: clear signal, durable fixes, and a bias for craftsmanship that holds up under real production pressure.
