Cover letter

A short note on what I'm looking for and how I work.

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am a senior software engineer with over ten years of experience building products that serve millions of users. My focus areas — developer experience, frontend platform architecture, and AI-powered tooling — sit at the intersection of engineering impact and product velocity, and I am excited to bring that combination to your team.

At Credit Karma I built the Progressive Deployment Service, an automated rollout system with metric-driven gates and instant rollbacks that dramatically reduced frontend production incidents. I also designed AI-guided spec-driven development workflows that shortened cycle times across multiple engineering teams. Earlier, at Lyft, I developed high-traffic web properties and a Developer Portal for third-party integrations, sharpening my skills in performance engineering and cross-functional collaboration.

Beyond my day-to-day work, I maintain a deep interest in how AI can improve the software development lifecycle — from intelligent code review to automated planning and task decomposition. I am most energized when I can pair strong frontend fundamentals (React, TypeScript, Next.js) with infrastructure thinking (CI/CD, observability, feature flags) to ship reliable, delightful products faster.

I would welcome the chance to discuss how my background in platform engineering, developer tooling, and AI integration can contribute to your organization. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Best regards,

Andrew Martin

Built for fun

Hobby projects I design and build on nights and weekends — for the joy of it, and shipped to production for real people to use.
