What I'm up to this very month.

Between full-time seats after five years at Wikimedia and Bytro, and shipping faster than ever: a local-first agent control plane (Fulcrum), a Flutter+Rust IPTV app, a Go CLI that swaps between 17 AI coding tools, and the homelab + site you're reading this on. Doing AI-driven development the way it actually pays off — not prompts, not demos, just real software that ships.
  • BUILDING Fulcrum — local-first agent control plane · task tracking + memory recall for multi-agent systems
  • SHIPPING 3,400+ commits in the past year across Fulcrum, Crispy-Tivi (IPTV), raise (17-tool AI profile switcher), and the homelab that serves this site
  • CONSULTING AI-assisted engineering workflows · agent-driven development · LLM integration into real backends — tech advisory, short engagements, hands-on
  • RUNNING LOCALLY Ollama + llama.cpp + LM Studio / Open WebUI · part of an actual engineering pipeline, not a toy
  • READING Designing Data-Intensive Apps (again) · Karpathy's nanochat · the Agent Skills and Plugins docs straight from Anthropic
  • AVAILABLE Senior / Staff IC · Engineering Manager · Tech advisory · AI-driven-dev consulting — remote or Hamburg
