Hi, I'm James Briggs, an Internet computer programmer/DBA/SRE in Silicon Valley. I've been engineering for over 20 years for companies like eBay, Netflix, Yahoo!, Apple, Amazon and startups.
I use TuCows/Hover for registering domain names.
I am available for MySQL/Postgres DBA/SRE/Security work in Silicon Valley or remote. Click here to contact me.
I am a MariaDB/MySQL code contributor and Perl CPAN author. Check out my github. My most recent project is cassandra-top.
In my spare time I do Open Source programming and like flying airplanes, karate and studying Asian languages.
