About

Hi, I'm David. Nice to meet you! I'm a Remote Software Engineer based in Ordino, Andorra. My work bridges functional programming, web and maintainability. Right now by focusing on creating better developer tools and experiences with OCaml and Reason.

I believe that creating maintainable and powerful software comes from designing with clarity, building on sound architecture, and embracing the iterative nature of development.

Work

Currently working at ahrefs, building the UI infrastructure, always at the intersection between backend, frontend and compilers. Previously, I helped build visual app development platforms at Draftbit for a year and, before that, worked at Typeform for 5 years, where I led the form rendering engine.

I co-host emelle.tv, where we talk with the authors and maintainers behind ML-family languages and their tooling.

Open Source

I maintain a few open source projects, like Melange, server-reason-react, styled-ppx and reason-react, the stack behind the UI at ahrefs.

Open source shaped my career, and I give back to the community where I can. Some of the notable projects:
