I'm Aaron Knobloch and I have a passion for making things; from songwriting to software. I currently work at Google, where I've had the pleasure to work on a lot of interesting tech. I'm currently exploring generative AI in the context of developer productivity and tooling. In addition to the exploratory work, I am also leading an effort to bring RISC-V to Android, and play a crucial role in supporting Fuchsia, a production-grade operating system. It's hard to summarize my career in a single paragraph, but those are the current highlights!
I'm a remote worker, former digital nomad, and still an avid traveler. You can read about those in the blog section. I love learning and sharing, and when I'm not building scalable and reliable systems at work, you can usually find me tinkering with something new at my house. Outside of software and technology, some of my favorite hobbies are painting, cycling and playing guitar. I currently call Denver my home, and have started picking up snowboarding and skateboarding again.
If you want to chat, the best way is through LinkedIn or email.
