Twelve years.
Six titles.
One through-line.
I started in 2012 at the World Bank. I'm here in 2026 designing distributed systems at iA Financial Group and founding Ghasi Technologies. The stack changed. The titles changed. The work underneath didn't — it's always been the same question: how do you decompose this domain so the next person who touches it has a chance of understanding it.
