Building in metal and silicon
I design custom PCBs, write bare-metal firmware, and weld physical frames. Every project is built from the ground up with clean documentation and functional precision.
Chronological build log
Systems & Fabrication
Hardware Engineering
Open-Source Systems
Began combining low-level C programming with manual lathe work, creating custom automated workshop tools and mechanical rigs.
Designed multi-layer PCBs and custom enclosures, shipping functional prototypes for industrial clients and testing suites.
Released bare-metal firmware libraries and mechanical schematics to the maker community, focusing on thorough documentation.
Equipped for execution
A focused set of technical capabilities spanning low-level software engineering, custom circuit design, and physical prototyping in the workshop.
Software
Hardware
Fabrication
Bare-metal C and Rust development, custom firmware development, low-level systems programming, and real-time operating systems integration.
Multi-layer PCB design, schematic capture, circuit simulation, high-speed signal routing, and rigorous hardware-in-the-loop testing protocols.
Precision CNC milling, manual lathe work, TIG welding, and rapid 3D prototyping of functional physical enclosures and brackets.
True engineering isn't about complexity. It is about reducing a system to its absolute essentials—whether that is in the workshop or the terminal.
