Colin Gourlay

Software Engineer · Self-Hosting Advocate · Music Obsessive

Building purposeful software — clean architectures, developer tooling, and the occasional vanity project.


About

I'm a software engineer with a fondness for clean architecture, strong opinions about tooling, and an embarrassingly deep interest in music.

By day I design and build .NET systems with a focus on clean architecture, proper testing, and CI/CD that actually works. By night I run self-hosted infrastructure, build Obsidian plugins, and over-engineer my music library. When I'm away from the keyboard you'll find me training for a triathlon or hunting down a record.
