Who am I?

Answers to questions you've never cared about.

Hi, My name is quobix.¹

I’m a hacker, product guy, software architect, inventor, technical leader, and failed musician.

I have about twenty-nine years of experience with designing and building software and software products across various industries and businesses.

My specialty is Experience Engineering, which generally means that I design and build technology that you engage with as a consumer.

I am a Founding Engineer and Chief Architect of Playing Field AI.

Making complex things feel simple and intuitive.

My ultimate goal, Creating the big red ’easy’ button.

The easy button means abstracting away a lot of different technological complexities.

All those complexities are pretty cool because it means I get to touch a lot of fast-moving tech.

I generally specialize in Interfaces (UI, CLI, API, SDK), and developer experience (DX); however, I’ve designed and built across a large landscape.

I’ve had the pleasure of architecting and building multiple platforms, SaaS products, developer tools, frameworks, games, and enterprise-scale management systems.

I am also the founder (and chief buckaroo) of princess beef heavy industries.

In case you’re interested in learning more, I have written an article on experience engineering.
