Software engineer at Qoria who made user syncs 50% faster and CI up to 80% faster.

At Qoria, I made user syncs 50% faster by rewriting the workflow scheduler and analyzing production flame graphs. I also made CI up to 80% faster by setting up self-hosted GitHub Actions runners and optimizing existing workflows.

At Fugro, I built the Rust command-and-control system for the Binar-1 satellite, which successfully completed its mission, and a Rust driver for the ground station antenna. I’ve also built embedded software for public transport fare terminals and a Rust tool that brings HDMI-CEC integration to Windows.
