Software Engineer & Graduate Researcher
I like creating things. Some are useful, some are experiments, and some probably did not need to exist.
My research is currently about distributed key management systems and security-critical IT infrastructure.
More specifically, I look at how different KMS architectures behave under load, scaling pressure, and failure.
Right now, I’m a Graduate Research Assistant at UNB / CAS Atlantic, working with 45Drives as an industry partner.
- Researching distributed KMS architectures for security-critical infrastructure
- Benchmarking monolithic and microservice-based KMS designs
- Looking at latency, throughput, scaling behavior, and failure cases
- Building Ground Control on the side, a control-plane project for heterogeneous infrastructure
- Slowly expanding my homelab, which is part playground, part learning environment, part source of new problems
- Making small tools, prototypes, dashboards, scripts, and the occasional useless thing for fun
backend services
research prototypes
small tools
homelab setups
infra experiments
automation scripts
dashboards
developer tooling
side projects
The serious work is usually somewhere around distributed KMS, infrastructure, Linux, Docker, Proxmox, databases, APIs, and measurement setups.
The less serious work is whatever seems fun to build at the time.
Building things, breaking things, and occasionally pretending that was the plan.
