Software Engineer · SRE · Security Enthusiast
I build reliable systems, practical tooling, and developer-first products.
I’m a software engineer with 6+ years of experience across backend development, infrastructure, and reliability engineering.
I enjoy working on systems that are predictable in production, clean in design, and useful long after they’re built.
My interests sit at the intersection of:
- frontend & backend engineering
- infrastructure & reliability
- applied security
- developer experience
I value clarity over cleverness and long-term maintainability over short-term wins.

I maintain a small set of focused security demos designed for learning and explanation, not exploitation.

I tend to prefer:
- simple systems over complex ones
- automation over repetition
- boring production over exciting outages
- documentation that explains why, not just what
If you’re interested in backend systems, infra, security, or thoughtful engineering, you’ll likely find something here that resonates.
