-
One infrastructure plan for 14 departments
Designed a comprehensive infrastructure framework for a research institute impacting 14 departments, featuring flexible modules, unified data pipelines, and structured support strategies for long‑term adoption.
-
Led a GIS map application to 10x revenue growth
Led the software development of a GIS map application, driving revenue growth by 10x and positioning the product as a primary data asset.
-
Overhauled internal processes, saving 8,000 hours
Overhauled internal processes, saving 8,000 hours by improving software architecture, systems, and scheduling efficiency.
-
A tenth of the cloud bill, and nothing lost
Optimized budget costs 10 times with zero loss in productivity for an international client by reimagining the overall infrastructure, eliminating unnecessary services, and relocating from the AWS cloud.
-
A maritime platform built in clean layers
Architected a layered maritime platform separating a Next.js PWA frontend, a Go (Huma/Fiber) API, and a PostgreSQL function layer, keeping all business logic in the database.
-
Set the platform's founding technical decisions
Set the platform's founding decisions in the weeks after the repository opened in November 2025 — the layering, database‑first data access and the zero‑warnings bar — and they still hold nine months on.
-
Built infrastructure that still runs years later
Planned and implemented new infrastructure functionality for internal and external systems, building solutions durable enough to still run years later with minimal change.
-
Built the entire core infrastructure from scratch
As one of the first hires, designed and built the entire core infrastructure and supporting processes from scratch for a green‑energy SaaS startup, laying the foundation for rapid growth.
-
A whole company on one small server
Ran the whole company on one 512 MB single‑core host — a git forge, a web server serving seven domains, Tor, two alternate‑protocol servers, backups and intrusion banning — by treating 464 MB of usable memory as the binding architectural constraint.
-
Split every operational secret per host
Split the four per‑host operational secrets after establishing that two hosts sharing one dead‑man's switch alert less than two switches, not more, and that a shared backup passphrase makes two hosts one repository.
-
Built a database‑driven CV generator
Built a database‑driven CV, references, portfolio and cover‑letter generator in Python — 41 modules, 10,580 lines — rendering six output formats from one 23‑table SQLite source assembled by a 19‑step idempotent pipeline.
-
Built a native macOS client in Swift 6
Built a native macOS messaging client in Swift 6 and SwiftUI — 11,141 lines across 53 files — over the C interface of a Rust core linked as a static archive from a pinned revision.
-
An app that ate 41 MB a second, stopped
Stopped an application filling memory at 41 MB a second — a recorded 111 GB of compressed pages on a 36 GB machine — by bounding every event stream, subscribing by event type and putting a rate budget on logging, taking 610,996 log lines down to 1,411.
-
Adopted Swift 6 strict concurrency over C
Adopted Swift 6 complete strict concurrency with no actors, bridging a blocking C event loop to the main actor through one producer, one consumer and one ordering — after establishing that a task per event loses the ordering the interface depends on.
