I'm a software developer at [3-shake Inc.](https://3-shake.com/) and a technical advisor to several companies. My work centers on backend development and infrastructure, and I also take on freelance programming projects. I enjoy writing Rust.
## How I Can Help
- **Development** — Hands-on backend and infrastructure work, with occasional frontend work.
- **Technical advisory** — Help thinking through technical decisions and implementation approaches.
- **Writing & speaking** — Technical writing, translation, conference talks, and media interviews.
## Writing & Speaking
Alongside my translation work, I've written a book of my own. I also write the Japanese tech blog [じゃあ、おうちで学べる](https://syu-m-5151.hatenablog.com/) and speak at tech conferences.
My [articles](https://syu-m-5151.hatenablog.com/) and [talk slides](https://speakerdeck.com/nwiizo) offer a closer look at how I approach and explain technical topics.
## Contact
A short note about what you're working on and where you could use help is enough to start. If you have a timeline in mind, feel free to include it.

A DM on X is the fastest way to reach me. General questions and media interview requests are welcome, too.
## Beyond Work
Outside of tech, I read books across genres and practice martial arts. I'm also a self-described "Gravure Digger."
I welcome review copies of books across genres. Please DM me on X to arrange delivery.
