I’m Chris, a software engineer building Tier 1 compliance and policy solutions for Amazon Pharmacy. The tools I build keep things legal for the business and safe for the patients. They’re always up, respond in single-digit ms, and impact every every pharmacy transaction.

I was an award-winning Masters Student in Computer Science, where I helped build some incredible research software for Microbiome Science with the Caporaso Lab. I also got to moonlight as a bioinformatician working with 16s rRNA sequence and qPCR data. Research! Provenance! Automation! Collaboration! Whee! I love Python, tolerate Java, respect C, am very intrigued by Rust, and take great satisfaction in making things go.

I am deeply motivated to build software that makes the world a better place, particularly by supporting positive outcomes for wilderness and climate, improving health access and outcomes, advancing human knowledge, and building tools that work for people first.

If your organization fits any of those descriptions, please get in touch. I am open for work in North America or Europe and would love to talk with you.

I believe in well-made things, hard work, good food, and human connection. When I’m not geeking out on open technology, you’ll find me reading a book, cooking something extravagant, or wandering in the woods somewhere.
