Profile: https://flows.cv/kyleebding

When I'm not looking for edge cases in my code, I'm probably reading niche Wikipedia articles or spinning an LED staff.

Generalist software engineer with a focus on computer networking, embedded systems, and backend integration. Familiar with cloud computing concepts and tools, distributed systems, parallel/multi-threaded applications, and cybersecurity. Big fan of test-driven development for automated testing and continuous integration.

I love learning new systems and tools and finding avenues to apply them so I can optimize the efficiency of my workflow and my life in general.
