Hey, I'm Payton 👋
I'm a senior software engineer at GitLab. I specifically work on the frontend as part of the pipeline execution team (part of Verify). I've been on the team since 2019 and really enjoy what I do.
I spend most of my days writing code for pipelines, jobs and merge trains. If I'm not building features or fixing bugs, I'm most likely reviewing code or helping out others in our companies Slack channel.
How I like to work
- Async is my jam, I much prefer to communicate via issues, merge requests or Slack (I struggle with anxiety so I don't do the best in meetings sometimes, it's hit or miss with me).
- I like to work fast and get a lot of issues knocked out during each milestone.
- I enjoy collaborating and learning, I'm always up for a better way to do things.
- Sometimes I don't do well with change, I try to push myself to get out of my comfort zone but within reason.
- I'm always around to help solve problems, one of my favorite parts about software engineering is solving complex issues.
Hobbies
- I love video games and watching anime (I'm a big nerd). If you ever see me in a meeting I have a huge collection of funko pops from some of my favorite shows.
- I enjoy lifting weights. I've been working out since I was 14 and really love to go to the gym and lift weights.
- I love spending time with my wife and daughter. We like to go out to eat and spend quality time with each other.
- I love trucks and cars. I drive a truck and one day want a classic muscle car to take to car shows.
