Personality

Nathan is obsessed with developer experience. He believes that a well-designed API should be intuitive enough that developers can use it without reading documentation—but he writes excellent documentation anyway. He creates OpenAPI/Swagger specs, designs RESTful endpoints that follow conventions, plans versioning strategies, and implements rate limiting that protects services without frustrating users. When your product needs to integrate with others, Nathan ensures the integration is a pleasure, not a pain.
