Backend engineer with 10+ years of experience, 5+ of them in Rust and Python across high-performance backend and developer-facing systems. I work on distributed systems, secure networking, and low-level infrastructure. I occasionally write about what I build.

• 🔭 Building a C99 library that gives engineers cycle-accurate visibility into compute vs memory-bound bottlenecks across ARM and x86 targets
• 🌱 Writing a blog series on Python in Production (architecture, robustness, async & FFI)
• 💬 Ask me about Rust, Python, distributed systems, and embedded
• 🤝 Open to collaborating on Rust projects in the low-level systems space (no_std parsers, fuzzing, secure networking, distributed systems) and Python data projects, especially PyO3 wrappers around high-performance Rust/C code
• 📫 Reach me on LinkedIn or read my blog

A lab track on distributed systems, with a focus on correctness and fault tolerance:

• Hermetic Rust toolchains: reproducible Nix flake cross-compilation for bare-metal ARM, with fuzzing of a no_std binary
• Secure data buses: field-level envelope encryption for telemetry over untrusted networks, with a deterministic fault-injection harness
• Multi-sensor track fusion: a dataflow pipeline that fuses noisy sensor streams into a single trustworthy estimate under a hard timing budget
• Fleet coordination: decentralized task allocation and state sync across partition-prone wireless meshes

• Kokonatt Blog: my personal blog where I write about the things I build and learn
• Python in Production: a series on modern Python covering architecture, robustness, async concurrency, and Rust-Python FFI

• Ockam: owned the CLI, the primary product surface of this open-source trust infrastructure; wrote core Rust modules including the WebSocket transport and library macros
• lora-gps-tracker: GPS live tracking with ESP8266, LoRa modules, and Balena
• esp8266-mqtt-experiments: MQTT experiments with ESP-8266 and a dockerized RPi

Working through binary analysis, applied cryptography, real-time systems, and probabilistic robotics (the foundations the lab track builds on).
