Hi! I'm elvis (he/him/his)
I'm a Christian living and working in SF. I grew up in Kennesaw, GA and went to Pomona College (Erdos #2)
I've starred a lot of repos (> 1k) and I used to organize them into lists; this was becoming too cumbersome to manage so I'm building an app to search for repos with natural language.
I currently work at dltHub, the company building dlt--an OSS (Apache-2.0) Python SDK for devs (+ their agents) building production-grade data pipelines!
I have previously worked at:
- Chalk - a modern data infrastructure platform for real-time machine learning and low-latency inferenc
- Warp - a modern cross-platform GPU-accelerated cloud-backed terminal (written in Rust) with AI built in!
- Emory University - doing NLP/IR in Public Health!
- Facebook - SWE (Core Growth - MPK21.Z1) right next to Full Circle.
Some tools that give me joy:
- git config
- chalk - ML infra
- warp - terminal
- graphite - git navigation + stacked diffs
- hookdeck - webhooks
- trunk - linting
- dlt - ETL / data movement
- rill - data exploration + dashboards (honorable mention: duckdb)
- lancedb - vector DB
- dagger - CI/CD engine + see example here
- flox - developer environment management
- stashpad :( rip
- attio - CRM - Python SDK
- clay - GTM
- koala - even more GTM - rip - curse you cursor :(
- front - CSM + scaling comms
- modal - compute + python scripts
- coderabbit - local AI code review:
coderabbit --prompt-only
- xan - CSV + local data exploration
- exa - navigation
- delta - git diffs
- fx - json
- bat - modern cat
- llama - navigation
- starship - prompt (although not needed with Warp)
- linear - type A
- raycast - keybindings
- rectangle (pro) - more keybindings
- swimm - internal docs
Vim > emacs
Barca > madrid
Club America > chivas

Move fast with stable infrastructure
