Building a better world.

Building a better world.

I use my skills as a software engineer to build amazing solutions for our world.

Build better

Hi, I'm Matt.

I build applications that people love to use.

Portrait of Matt Rigg

I have a personal obsession with human-computer interaction and complex problem solving.

Thoughtful and delicate interactions are the cornerstones of how people perceive the value of a product. These often subtle moments can quietly but undoubtedly sway a user's impression of a product. Understanding this psychology is critical to building a product that people want to come back to time and time again.

What I build

I build enterprise-scale applications using the latest adopted standards. I'm grateful to have worked with some of the most talented designers and engineers in the market, building applications which have served millions of users.

With over a decade of experience, and as a 7+ year AWS veteran, I have intimate experience with building high-availability and scalable applications in a way that's performant and cost-effective for any use case.

Inventing climate solutions

I believe the climate crisis is one of the most pressing challenges of our time. Some solutions are beginning to scale, but we must continue to rage against humanity's slow progress on climate action on all fronts. Carbon sequestration, emissions reduction, and energy grid modernization are some of the most compelling challenges that we can tackle today.
