I'm a software engineer who works mostly around automation, developer experience, and platform/infrastructure concerns, including security. I enjoy building and shaping systems that make other developers' lives easier and help teams move faster with confidence. Whether that's a new service, better monitoring and tracking, or simply clearer documentation and training.
A lot of that work revolves around systems other teams depend on for their day-to-day work. That usually means working across teams to decide what we can change, what we have to live with (for now), and what simply isn't worth focusing on. Gotta pick your battles.
- My ongoing attempt at managing my entire homelab as proper infrastructure-as-code (currently Kubernetes-based).
- Firmware settings and keymaps for a couple of my keyboards.
- Small, often single-purpose tools built to solve very specific problems, including forks of other projects with minor tweaks.
- A single-GPU passthrough setup on KVM for the occasional game that doesn’t play nicely with Linux.
- A collection of older scripts, tools, and proof-of-concepts from when I was learning the basics. Some of this is very old.
- Write fiction. Short stories, character studies, and tabletop campaigns.
- Play TTRPGs, though less than I’d like since moving to Berlin.
- Home automation, both software and hardware.
- Play around building and tweaking custom mechanical keyboards.
- I'm trying to get better at photography.
