01Capabilities

Design · Build · Defend

Infrastructure that is boring in production.

Cloud, delivery and security work, from the first architecture sketch to the patch that ships on a Friday without anyone noticing.

01 — Cloud & IaC

Cloud as code

Penetration testing and security research, plus compliance for platforms that hold sensitive financial data, certificates, patching and audit trails.

04 — Delivery

CI/CD pipelines

GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Azure Pipelines and Jenkins, taking every merge from commit to production.

Solution architecture

System design and database administration, cloud migrations, and one enterprise-grade structure across many projects.

  • System design
  • DBA
  • Cloud migration

06 — Leadership

Delivery leadership

Project management from day one: requirements straight from the client, Agile sprints, code review, and writing the critical code myself.

03Lab

~/lab — 9 projects

Open source, built around privacy.

Nine open-source projects, from tools where the security model is the whole point to APIs, apps and automation. Plus 5+ published Flutter packages.

Open source · TypeScript01

Kura Vault

Self-hosted, end-to-end encrypted storage for personal photos and videos. Media is encrypted on the device before upload; the server stores opaque blobs and wrapped keys, and never sees a passphrase, a key or a decrypted file.

Status: early · not yet independently audited

  • NestJS
  • PostgreSQL
  • React
  • Flutter
  • Docker Compose
Open source · Python02

RGB Steganography

A small tool that hides text inside an image's RGB pixel values, so the picture looks unchanged while carrying a message.

  • Python
  • Steganography
  • Privacy
Packages04

05Method

Assess → Assure

Four steps, every time.

  1. Step 01

    Assess.

    Audit what exists: infrastructure, costs, access and risks, before changing anything.

  2. Step 02

    Architect.

    Design the system and data model, and write the infrastructure plan as code.

  3. Step 03

    Automate.

    CI/CD and GitOps so every release is repeatable, reviewed and reversible.

  4. Step 04

    Assure.

    Monitoring, alerting, patching and disaster recovery that keep it that way.
