Ross Todd · Senior Software Engineer · München
I build the platforms other engineers ship on.
Most recently I built Borealis, a Web Components platform four to five product teams shipped on across Next.js, Svelte, React, Vue, and .NET. Before that, I worked on Nike's consent platform: serverless, event-driven, four AWS regions including China. TypeScript and Node, with Python and Rust where they fit better.
Available now. Permanent senior or staff platform roles, in Munich or remote within the EU.

Notes
What made a component platform survive five host frameworks
platform-engineering · architecture · web
Borealis ran across Next.js, Svelte, React, Vue, and .NET. The portability came from versioning the props-and-events contract, not from the technology.
