Hey, I'm Kade Powell
a full-stack engineer designing systems that work hard behind the scenes. I build tools that make complex infrastructure feel simple. On the frontend, I craft clean, responsive UIs; on the backend, I architect reliable systems.
About Me
As a full‑stack engineer I leverage my background in self‑hosted systems and network orchestration to build reliable, user‑focused products.

Some of my recent thoughts
I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with Kade over the past couple of years, and I continue to be impressed by his technical skills, ownership, and calm leadership under pressure. Most recently, he has led the development of a complex internal tool with minimal support—taking it from concept to production with clarity and care. As we near go-live, his thoughtful approach to incorporating feedback from beta users has made a measurable difference in the usability and impact of the product. He listens deeply, iterates quickly, and always balances technical decisions with user experience in mind.
