Software engineer, aspiring entrepreneur, and drummer.

I'm Sebastian, a software engineer based in California. I love to write software that fosters growth and bring ideas to life.

The Start-up Grind

You're working on something new. Things move fast. It feels exciting. There's opportunity to touch a wide range of areas—product, infra, security, platform, you name it. And on top of that, you might even retire as a side effect.

12+ Years of Software Engineering

Looking back, it does seem crazy how long it's been and how fast time has gone by. I remember the joy of digging into something new and the eagerness to see it cross the line. Back then, time felt abstract—it would accelerate while I was working, and suddenly 10 to 12 hours had gone by just like that.

Working with Postman Pre-request Scripts

The idea behind this post is to share the way Postman allowed us to have a shared set of API calls, how the Postman's Pre-request scripts feature solved the problem of having to manually copy and paste authentication headers in each API call and to point out some gotchas about the scripts you can write with Postman.
