Gilfeather/README.md

Hi, I'm Gilfeather πŸ‘‹

I'm a software engineer working mainly as a contractor, with a strong focus on building and maintaining open-source software.

I specialize in identifying structural problems in systems, shaping them into tractable forms, and implementing solutions that favor simplicity, explicitness, and long-term maintainability.

Current Focus

  • Designing and implementing developer tools and internal utilities
  • Building OSS projects driven by real operational pain points
  • Refactoring, performance tuning, and architectural cleanup of existing systems

Selected Open Source Projects

  • furnace
    A Rust-based tool built to solve practical issues encountered in real-world development and operations.
    Focus: performance, clarity, and long-term maintainability.

(Other repositories are experiments, prototypes, or works in progress.)

Contract Work

I mainly work as a contractor on software development projects.

What I can help with

  • Backend / infrastructure-oriented development
  • System design, refactoring, and technical debt reduction
  • Early-stage implementation (0 β†’ 1) and stabilization of existing systems

What I don't optimize for

  • Purely decorative frontend work
  • Projects without a clear problem definition

Contact

If you'd like to discuss work, collaboration, or OSS ideas:

  • GitHub: open an issue or discussion on a relevant repository
