I go by Dragon / Zach. Most of my experience comes from Minecraft communities, server operations, staff leadership, modpack work, hosting, and helping projects turn player feedback into better experiences.
TechByTech started as a multi-modded server community where I hosted several modpacks at the same time. As the community evolved, it became increasingly focused on InsaneCraft and grew alongside that audience.
That meant more than just keeping a server online: managing modpacks, custom recipes, configuration, player issues, community expectations, and the people helping operate everything behind the scenes.
I like the combination of technical troubleshooting and people-focused management: tuning a server, setting up permissions, solving a panel problem, reviewing a bug report, handling staff decisions, or improving how a community communicates.
I am not presenting myself as a full-time software engineer. My strength is practical server work: configuration, infrastructure, modpacks, plugins, systems, moderation, and project coordination.
Deploying, configuring, maintaining, troubleshooting, and optimizing Minecraft environments.
Staff oversight, tickets, punishments, player issues, feedback loops, and community planning.
Curating modpacks, changing recipes, configuring progression, and solving compatibility or gameplay issues.
Keeping updates, bug reports, partnerships, staff work, and community priorities organized.
