I build cloud-native, embedded, and network security software for satellite, aerospace, and industrial systems.

I'm building cloud-native and embedded software for Amazon Project LEO (Kuiper), supporting next-generation satellite communications infrastructure and network operations. I develop backend services, diagnostics, telemetry processing, automation, and infrastructure tools in C++17-23, Python, Bash, Linux, AWS, and hardware-integrated environments.

Previously, I developed aircraft sensor, optical, navigation, and targeting-turret software at Lockheed Martin; EV charging backend services at Techniche-UK; and network and cybersecurity systems at OpenText, Carbonite, and Webroot. Across more than two decades, I've built PC, embedded, firmware, telemetry, wireless, and industrial automation systems, including patented wireless technologies for natural gas automation.
