Location: San Francisco, California, United States
Profile: https://flows.cv/charliephan

fullstack software engineer with a focus on UX and DX. im an enjoyer of making a pourover coffee, some fresh air, and maintaining way too many spotify playlists.

while my day to day mostly involves trying to solve business problems with code, i derive the most satisfaction from my work when im able to optimize for developer experience and user experience in parallel. what this manifests as is finding the throughline between technical decisions and business impact.

when it comes to technology, i do enjoy keeping my finger on the pulse when it comes to browsers, new libraries, frameworks, or workflows. i'm not dogmatic about what stack i use, but i do care about using the right to tool solve the problem at hand.

currently exploring: sync engines, better fullstack archictecture with the tanstack ecosystem (start, db, query)
