Carter McCann / Lead forward-deployed engineer
I design and build web products that hold up in production.
I do my best work when I can follow a product from the early decisions through the live release.

Lead forward-deployed engineer at ComCreate.
I lead client-facing engineering at a full-service digital agency. I scope work with clients, build their sites and platforms, and keep what ships running. I also manage and mentor two developers.
