Hi, I'm Aaron.
I'm a Principal Engineer and tech lead of the software development team at Let's Encrypt, the world's largest free and open certificate authority.
As part of my role, I contribute heavily both to the Internet Engineering Task Force developing interoperability standards for the modern web, and to the CA/Browser Forum developing the rules and regulations which set the standard of behavior for certificate authorities around the world.
I specialize in developer-facing tooling, and have previously worked on Infrastructure, Operations, and Developer Experience teams. I enjoy doing work which directly benefits my colleagues, due to the fast feedback loops and due to the virtuous cycle in which it makes my own life better at the same time.
I believe in doing the right thing, equal rights and opportunities for everyone, and petting cats.
