Software Engineer

Michael Paul

Hey, I'm Michael. I build backend systems, dig into Linux - Cloud internals, and care deeply about writing reliable and maintainable software.

This site is where I publish what I learn from API design patterns to deep dives on how the kernel handles networking. If it's interesting to me, it ends up here.
