About

👋  Hi, and thanks for stopping by.  I’m Anders Ramsay, a software engineer based in Brooklyn, NY.  I’m the technical co-founder for a home maintenance venture, where we’re working to simplify the process of home upkeep, electrification, and more.  Previously, I’ve worked at multinationals, design agencies, federal contractors, and several startups, where I wore many different hats, including Delivery Principal, Senior Software Engineer, Director of UX, and more.

In my free time, I enjoy 📖 🍷 🎿 🎾 🏃 ☕ ⚽ 🏋️‍♂️ and spending way too much time on Hacker News. 😄
