The day job

At Amazon I'm the front-end technical lead for a React app 68,000+ people use every day. The work I'm proudest of there is the unglamorous kind: three design systems unified into one across 20 repositories, CI/CD build time cut by 65%, a Babel config taken from 276 lines to 40.

The long-form versions are on davemaynard.dev.

The emblems above are SVGs that draw themselves in, from one script.
