Jason Chestnut

Backend engineer with 26+ years of experience building systems that need to be reliable, correct, and debuggable at 11pm.

My background spans defense simulation, fintech, and cloud-native product work. I'm drawn to distributed systems, event-driven and async architecture, Edge and IoT, and API and SDK design. The infrastructure layer that makes everything else possible.

Go Python Java

What I'm building

dedupe — A Go CLI that processed 188k+ photos and videos to solve a 23-year family photo organization problem.

role-model — A resume platform for engineers. Go backend, Python/FastAPI renderer, built to replace a Node.js script that was getting out of hand.

budgeteer — A shared budgeting app for two people who just want to know where their money is going. FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Redis, with AI-powered spending insights via the Anthropic SDK.

Writing

I write occasionally about building things as a working engineer — not from having figured it out, but from figuring it out. → shurikai.github.io
