about_
i’m a filipino software engineer in melbourne.
i started out building production systems, and eventually moved into test automation—mostly after seeing how often things break in the same ways.
these days, i design and build test frameworks, and spend a lot of time trying to stop broken things from quietly making it to production.
outside of work, i’m the vocalist and co-producer for tito science.
i ride my bike further than i probably should, get tapped out by people half my size in jiujitsu, and lose more tennis balls than i can justify replacing.
