I am contacting you in regard to the Backend Engineer position. After reading up on Peregrine, I'm
in full support the work you guys are doing and would love to discuss the opportunity to be a part
of it.

As a generational engineer, I have been engaged in engineering the majority of my life, both as a
hobby, as well as professionally. While I have tangible experience in both mechanical and electrical
engineering, I have found software engineering to be an excellent conduit for my love of building
systems. I have high standards for quality solutions that focus on simplicity, efficiency, and
correctness. While I have an affinity for Rust, I have experience with many other languages such as
Python, C, and JavaScript.

I love to explore and learn about new things and a majority of my free time is spend doing so.
Through my hobbies and career, I have developed a diverse knowledge base and wide skill set,
including a strong understanding of DevOps, containerization, and Unix systems, to name a few. I
believe this, along with my proficiency for engineering, experience with distributed systems, and
passion for writing efficient and correct code, could provide unique qualifications for this
opportunity, and I look forward to discussing it further.
