Hey! I am Joey. Currently a student at McGill University studying Computer Science.

There are a couple of things I am quite interested in:

• Database Systems
• Compilers - I have built a mini C compiler before
• Functional Programming
• Observability
• Text Editor - Neovim
• Personal Finance - I am building fijoy.app
• Food

I currently work at Shopify's observability team, and we are building our in-house observability platform called Shopify Observe, which I think is pretty cool!

In the past, I worked as a founding engineer at a startup called Flojoy. With my team, we raised 1.3M USD to bring modern test, measurement and control (TMC) tooling to heavy industries where software hasn't kept up. Besides this, I've worked at companies such as Meta, Wealthsimple, etc.

If you have similar interests, or just want to say hi and chat, feel free to hit me up!
