Hi. I'm Tom Sartain.

I'm a human living in Upstate New York.

I like computers. I try to make them like me back.

I like humans. I think every person has value, intelligence and good inside.

Everything that I know is because I figure anything can be done better.

Everything that I do is in an effort to make things better.

I've worked in front-end, back-end, data science, server management, and behind the scenes.

I've worked on search, recommendations, payments, continuous integration, source control, tooling, federated GraphQL, RESTful architecture, authentication / authorization, and more.

I've used PHP, Python, Typescript / Javascript, Go, Elasticsearch, MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, Graphite, and more.

I've worked with an online learning platform, a video-sharing website, an idea management & innovation service, a consulting firm/product shop/idea incubator, and more.

My work has been used by audiences of millions, and audiences of one.

I don't make things pretty, I make them work.

I've got a resume, if you're interested.
