My name is Alan Vardy; I am a Product-minded Senior Developer living on the beautiful West Coast of Canada.

I love working remotely on backend Elixir services and enjoy playing with Rust in my free time. I pride myself on being a high-output individual contributor who leaves code better than he finds it and actively improves the overall health of codebases. I enjoy contributing beyond myself through project management and technical leadership because the most challenging part of this work is the people, not the code!

Some of my values:

• Code quality and tests help us ship faster, not slower 🚢
• Tooling and linters prevent bikeshedding 🚲 🏚️
• Software is only a dumpster fire when we let it be one 🔥
• Continuous, steady improvement over huge rewrites 🛠️
• Fixing small bugs today prevents large issues tomorrow 🐛
• Magical things happen when developers can work in uninterrupted chunks of time 🕙
• I'm paid well, and thus, invest in myself and my tools 🚀
• A candid conversation now saves a lot of hurt later 🩹
• Kindness is mandatory, not optional 🥰

If our values align, be sure to drop me a line 😆
