Hi! I'm Em Sharnoff

I'm a software engineer and photographer living in the Bay Area.

Currently, I'm happily working at Neon as the tech lead for autoscaling, having built it up from prototype to production. Check out neondatabase/autoscaling on Github if you're curious for what that looks like.

This website is mostly for my photos, where I'm semi-regularly posting batches of photos from various outings.
If you like them, you can find more by subscribing to my RSS/Atom feed. Alternately, I tend to (begrudgingly) post on Bluesky as well.
