Software Developer

About

I’m a regular contributor to Bitfocus Companion, an open source broadcast automation software that is widely used throughout the A/V and broadcast industry. I actively maintain Companion plugins that tens of thousands of users rely on for graphics playback control, recording system monitoring, remote guest management, and streaming control.

For modules I develop and maintain, I oversee the development pipeline and user support. I’ve integrated a wide variety of platforms and devices, which requires diverse knowledge of APIs, network protocols, often including interfacing with the product manufacturer to ensure complete coverage is available from within the module.

I also assist on a team of core developers with maintaining the primary Companion software. This also includes providing support and assisting other module developers.
