Retainer
A retainer with me helps your team build better software.
I unblock engineers, teams, and products.
With 2 decades of programming and open source experience, I have been working with Rust since before 1.0. My journey with open source includes deploying cloud services at Mozilla1, building out the Rust networking ecosystem at Buoyant, and advising internally AWS as part of their Rust Platform team.2
Always unblocking people.
By maintaining
I’m the creator, maintainer, or core contributor to open source libraries you critically depend on:
- hyper, the Rust HTTP implementation, and its dependencies
- reqwest, the batteries-included HTTP client
- tower, async services and middleware
- Tokio, the async runtime for Rust
- bytes, optimized bytes manipulation
- Axum, the recommended HTTP server framework
- warp, the functional server framework inspiring the others
- tonic, gRPC for Rust
By advising
I want to help you make your team build better software. Through mentoring, code audits, design doc reviews as well as any other high-touch, direct access relationship you are looking for. Think of it like having a principal engineer on your team, at a fraction of the cost.

A retainer ensures the critical libraries you depend on are funded, and gains you direct access to me for advise.
