Solo-founder building a visual DLQ

About

Hey there! 👋 I'm a full-stack developer and solo founder deeply passionate about backend architecture, cloud infrastructure, and developer tools. Over the years, I’ve spent way too much time fighting with messy server logs and fixing broken webhooks in the terminal. That frustration led me to build Underlayer, a visual safety net for background jobs and async tasks. My goal is simple: to make backend infrastructure more visual, less painful, and accessible right from a clean UI, saving fellow developers from production-induced headaches. When I’m not coding in .NET or Next.js, you’ll find me roasting UI/UX flows or participating in build-in-public communities. Let's connect and build awesome things together! 🚀

Underlayer - Catch, edit, and retry failed webhooks & cron jobs

A developer-first task scheduler for HTTP webhooks, crons, and async jobs. Stop digging through messy server logs when things break. Underlayer catches failed payloads in a visual Dead Letter Queue. Easily inspect the error, fix the broken JSON right in our built-in editor, and hit retry with one click. Manage your team, monitor every run, and keep your backend infrastructure running smoothly without ever touching the CLI. Generous free tier available.
