Hi, I'm Sean.
Software engineer in Seattle. I build durable systems, teach models new tricks, and try to stay gleefully hazardous at the edges of whatever I'm working on.
bio
I'm seanfitz, and I'm a software engineer. I live in Seattle with my
wife, two daughters, three dogs, and two cats in our (probably
haunted) house. I've worked at startups, big tech, social networks,
and now in fintech — mostly in the shadows (operations, backend,
infrastructure), occasionally surfacing to be dangerous on the
front end. I believe the best way to create products is to explore
and experiment. I believe good infrastructure should be reliable to
the point of transparency. If you're building a product,
be tinkering. If you're building a platform,
enable tinkering.
