/ the short version

mamikon builds for the web, end to end. eight-plus years across armenia's software shops, from a first chair at fatal error in 2008 to senior engineer at ucraft today.

php and go on the server, sql where the truth lives, git holding it all together. the tools turned over more than once. the habit of shipping did not.

/ recent writing

  • when the community needs engineers

    on mobilization-era armenia, and what people who build the web can do when it matters.

  • hosting, honestly

    vps, shared plans, and the questions worth asking before you rent a server.

  • ssd, and the word unlimited

    two words sell more hosting than any benchmark. one of them means something.
