Andrew Martin — Full-stack engineer in SF

I build software
with intent & craft.

Developer Experience & AI Platform @ Credit Karma

16 years shipping for scale. I build fast, resilient products and the developer tooling that ships them — now on Credit Karma's AI Platform team, building delivery tooling the org's 1,000 engineers use to ship to 140M+ members. Alongside that, I'm currently taking on contract work — hourly, fractional, or a full project build. Product, websites, and AI tools.

What people say

A few words from people I've built alongside — at Credit Karma, Lyft, and beyond.

Andrew. Just. Gets. Things. Done! If I was to start a new startup today, Andrew would be one of my first few hires at all cost.”

Andrew is at his best with an ambiguous problem and no clear path — he investigates, narrows it down, and ships a solution without needing much supervision.”

He felt the platform’s pain points firsthand, and instead of just working around them, he took it upon himself to fix them.”

Lately

    My side project for texting work to agents on my Mac now shows up in my phone's share sheet. I can send it a screenshot or a link and tell it what to do with it. Much faster than describing things.

    Opening Myne up to the UK and Australia. People there were being told it isn't available in their region. Next up is showing values in local currency, so it feels like it was made for them.

    Cloudtape 1.1.6 is out for testing. Tap an album sleeve and it opens full screen. Artist pages get real photos. There's a colour strip for picking your own accent, and AirPlay is coming too.
