I'm Mike Stop Continues, a principal software engineer, leader, and entrepreneur with a passion for combining technical expertise, product design, and innovative thinking to make the internet increasingly awesome. Iโve directed numerous teams, leading engineering, product, and major enterprise initiatives, with engineering contributions in frontend, backend, systems, and AI. In my 17+ years of engineering experience, I've also bootstrapped several startups.
I'm actively seeking opportunities to bring my unique blend of product-focus, engineering excellence, team leadership, and rapid development to an exciting new project.
In my spare time, Iโm also building BrowserCat, an automation platform providing serverless access to long-running headless browsers, with dedicated APIs for scraping, testing, image generation, and more. While deploying browsers-as-infrastructure is normally a painful and costly endeavor, with BrowserCat, businesses can leverage the full power of web automation at a minimum in time, money, and headspace.
I'd like to hear from you. Reach out.
