Richard Hounslow

I’m the founder of StratoFusion, a product for people whose files have ended up across Google Drive, OneDrive and Dropbox.

My background is in software architecture and engineering. I’m interested in cloud systems, useful AI, search, product judgement and the trade-offs involved in building independent software that should remain maintainable for years.

I’ll use the articles here to share concrete decisions, mistakes and architecture notes—not a polished story in which every experiment worked. StratoFusion is currently built around provider-neutral interfaces and a separate worker for data-plane operations.

Founder of StratoFusion. Building useful software. Interested in ideas, mountain bikes, good coffee and the occasional whisky. Following Christ, imperfectly.
