Hey, I'm Roger Stringer!

Product Engineer, AI Automation Engineer, Author, Foodie, Speaker, Dad.

With more than 2 decades in this field, I've worked with a wide variety of technologies including JavaScript / TypeScript, Go, Rust, PHP, Astro, React, Vue, MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Redis, AWS, GCP, Docker, Ansible, Terraform, and many others in a variety of domains including Travel, HR, EventTech, EdTech, AI, B2B and B2C ecommerce, Finance and Business Management and have worn many different hats over that time. This has given me a broad perspective and a deep understanding of the software development lifecycle.

I'm a Product Engineer I focus on creating great user experiences by working backwards from what the product should be, using whatever tools and technologies are needed: I don't just write code but think about the whole product from frontend to backend while staying focused on what users actually want. at heart (my speciality is taking rough problem statements and turning them into polished products from all aspects) with an eye for good design and expertise in all parts of the stack including the frontend, backend, databases, devops and cloud.

I also specialize in AI automation engineering and have a passion for integrating AI seamlessly into daily workflows and processes and building solutions using tools. such as ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, MCP servers, LangChain, Windmill, N8N, and more.

This site is where I can talk, think and share about various things that I'm interested in or find otherwise interesting.

I'm also a big camping and hiking enthusiast. When I'm not hanging out with my family or at the computer, or at a coffee shop, you can find me camping or hiking somewhere in the mountains around the Okanagan valley where I live.
