Hey there, I'm Blake Gentry!

I'm a developer passionate about building user-friendly, reliable, and scalable systems.

I'm the co-creator of River--a fast and reliable background job system for Go and Postgres. River is fully-featured and built to scale, and its transactional enqueueing model eliminates entire categories of distributed systems challenges. Check it out at riverqueue.com or dive into the code here.

About Me

  • Early engineer at Heroku + Opendoor. Co-founder of Distru. Built scalable video infrastructure at Mux.
  • Based in Austin, TX.
  • Connect with me on LinkedIn.
