Currently working as a Firmware Engineer on Qualcomm IPQ60xx-based platforms, focusing on Secure Boot, Verified Boot, U-Boot, firmware signing, and OpenWrt.

Previously worked on Proxmox clusters, Dell EMC SAN storage, WAN aggregation, and high-availability infrastructure. I also led infrastructure operations for a university organization, managing virtualization, monitoring, GitLab, backups, and self-hosted services.

Outside of work, I run a homelab built around Proxmox VE, Docker, OPNsense, WireGuard, VLANs, and various self-hosted services. I enjoy building and operating infrastructure, networking, observability, automation, and security-focused systems.

Open source contributor with merged contributions to ngx-http-auth-jwt-module and Proxmox VE.
