Congrats on the launch!

An application I use for a similar “tweeting but for your eyes only” experience is Memos and the MoeMemo’s app. My main reason for using memos is being able to self-hosted the server and I can use it in the browser and the app.

another plug-and-play pre-flashed with wled: https://magwled.com/

you can find the controller on amazon comes with usb-c for 12v and 5v and currrently using it with some BTF-LIGHTING WS2812B fairy lights

Hey! I'm Edwin, a software engineer with 2 years of experience. In my most recent role as a Data Engineer, I specialized in writing Python and SQL pipelines for big data analytics on data center components, supporting manufacturing engineers. I have a solid track record of optimizing pipeline performance and improving data analysis capabilities.

Before my data engineering role, I worked as a software engineer at Cox Automotive, where I focused on infrastructure-as-code solutions using technologies like Terraform, Python (including Boto3), and AWS. Notably, I developed an internal tool that processed large volumes of AWS data, resulting in a 50% reduction in the time required to detect cloud cost and usage anomalies and contributing to significant cost savings.

I'm passionate about back-end and data engineering, and I'm excited to continue making an impact in this field.

Hey! I'm Edwin, a software engineer with ~2 years of experience. I have spent the past year working as a Data engineer where I have owned various big data (think 20 GB daily partitions) pipelines delivering analytics to a manufacturing engineers to identify areas of improvement in our manufacturing process. More recently I have worked in the privacy space and have developed pipelines to enumerate all the data systems within the organization. Before that I worked as a software engineer at Cox Automotive where I enjoyed writing infra-as-code solutions using Terraform, Python/boto3 and AWS to solve problems related to cloud costs and usage.

I would love to continue working in the back-end/data engineering space!
