I build software that runs itself — voice agents that transcribe locally, content pipelines that publish overnight, and small tools that keep running long after I stop watching them.

Most of my work is self-hosted on a small ARM server I own. That means no subscription bills, no service shutdowns, and no surprises when a company changes its pricing. The tradeoff is that I'm responsible for everything — and I've learned to automate the boring parts.

I care about the unglamorous details: what happens when the process dies at 3am, whether the model actually fits in memory, how much of this can run without anyone paying a subscription.

I work with a small team. We build custom software for US warehouse and logistics owners — one tool that does everything, no ERP, no WMS, no multiple apps.

A list of software tells you nothing. What matters is the part in between — where the tool stops and the judgement starts.
