๐Ÿš€ About Me

I'm a multi-disciplinary engineer working across the whole stack: from smart contracts and wallets, through APIs and frontends, down to the pipelines and cloud infrastructure that ship and run them. My philosophy is simple: if a task is repeated more than once, it should be automated.

๐ŸŽฏ What I Do

  • โ›“๏ธ Blockchain & Web3 - Wallet and payment flows, Bitcoin/ecash protocols, smart contract integration
  • ๐Ÿ”ง DevOps - CI/CD pipelines, containerisation, infrastructure as code, monitoring
  • โ˜๏ธ Cloud & AWS - Designing, deploying and cost-tuning cloud infrastructure
  • ๐ŸŒ Full-Stack - TypeScript, React/Next.js frontends and Node.js/Python backends
  • โšก Automation - Agentic tooling, workflow automation and developer productivity tools
  • ๐Ÿ”Œ Real-time Systems - WebSocket services, event pipelines and live dashboards
  • ๐ŸŽฎ Game Development - FiveM/RedM modifications, scripts, and frameworks

๐Ÿ’ก Current Focus

  • โ›“๏ธ Building open source Web3 tooling and contributing to Bitcoin/ecash projects
  • โ˜๏ธ Production-grade AWS infrastructure with Terraform
  • ๐Ÿ”ง Kubernetes operations and platform engineering
  • ๐Ÿค– AI-assisted developer tooling (MCP servers, code-review and audit pipelines)
