Four senior engineers, one byline policy: it ships or it isn't published.
Every article on socialanimal.dev is written by one of the four engineers below — the same people who design, build, and migrate the production sites we ship. No outsourced content desk, no AI rewriter dressed as a person. When an article carries someone's name, it's because they did the work.
