Rust Systems & Cryptography Engine
Rust Systems & Cryptography Engine

Authored a 63K-line Rust desktop application (Tauri): an offline-first sync engine with a hybrid logical clock, and a versioned AEAD envelope designed on audited primitives (AES-256-GCM, HKDF, Argon2id, HPKE). Owns the signed, notarized four-target release pipeline. 769 tests.

AI-in-the-Loop Engineering
AI-in-the-Loop Engineering

Built a repo-local multi-agent audit harness that fans out read-only reviewers, then forces an adversarial verify pass on every finding. One run distilled 204 raw findings to 44 real ones. The same method reviews production infrastructure-as-code before it applies, catching real defects pre-deploy.

Domain Controller Security & Kerberos Observability Platform
Domain Controller Security & Kerberos Observability Platform

Rebuilt domain-controller monitoring for a hybrid Windows estate from blind service pings to real Windows Event Log alerting, redesigning Data Collection Rules across AD DS, DFS Replication, DNS Server, and Kerberos/NTLM/LDAP security events routed to a dedicated security action group. Proved the pipeline on a live Sev0 incident, root-causing a DNS Server failure across two domain controllers to resolution in 48 minutes with zero false-positive noise, then canary-tested the same pattern against 39,000 live security events before porting it to a second tenant.

Emissions Accounting MLOps Platform
Emissions Accounting MLOps Platform

Designed, built, and personally verified a closed-loop MLOps platform end to end: ingest, classify, compute, ledger, monitor, retrain, backed by 900+ tests at 95% coverage. Its centerpiece is a five-independent-budget promotion gate spanning quality, slice, latency, cost, and calibration that blocked a challenger model with a better quality score outright because its unit cost ran 3.4x the champion cost against a pre-declared ceiling. Backed by a hash-chained, append-only ledger where corrections are recorded as restatements, on a Terraform/Terragrunt-managed Azure estate with a CI validator that fails the build if documentation claims outrun their own evidence.

macOS Security Scanner with Privileged-Helper Architecture
macOS Security Scanner with Privileged-Helper Architecture

Built a native macOS security scanner solo over one weekend: a Go engine paired with a SwiftUI client, architected around real privilege separation, an unprivileged daemon owns the only database and serves JSON-RPC over a Unix socket, while a minimal root helper is the only component allowed to touch raw sockets. Relies on FileVault for at-rest encryption instead of adding a database-level cipher, and a monotonic, saturating risk-score design instead of a naive average. An end-to-end scan against a real target returned working findings and a computed risk score, retrieved purely over the API.

Silent Firewall Root-Cause: Domain-Join Without Touching the Box
Silent Firewall Root-Cause: Domain-Join Without Touching the Box

A freshly provisioned production VM domain-joined cleanly in a lower environment but failed in production with a bare transport error. Rather than requesting box access, pulled effective routes and ran in-guest port probes remotely, proving the firewall passed LDAP but silently dropped Kerberos, RPC, and SMB. Handed the network team a precise, actionable ticket instead of a vague failure report, and had the VM fully joined within days.

Jenkins Credential Store Recovery
Jenkins Credential Store Recovery

Recovered live cloud service-principal credentials from a legacy CI system's internal encrypted secret store, which had no documented plaintext copy anywhere. Extracted the master key and encrypted secret files directly from the running container, then wrote a from-scratch Python implementation of the platform's proprietary two-layer AES scheme to recover the plaintext. Verified the result by authenticating against the cloud identity provider's live OAuth2 endpoint rather than trusting the decryption output on its own.

AWS Security Training CTF Platform
AWS Security Training CTF Platform

Built a self-contained capture-the-flag backend for an internal AWS security training exercise: Terraform provisions a fresh, scoped IAM user per scenario, a bot handles player login and status checks, and a templated mailer sends each participant their own credentials. A DynamoDB-backed, S3-hosted leaderboard updates live as scenarios are solved, with infrastructure, bot, and scoring wired together end to end.

Federated Virtual Desktop Sign-In Root-Cause
Federated Virtual Desktop Sign-In Root-Cause

Root-caused an intermittent federated sign-in failure on cloud-hosted virtual desktops to a specific protocol-level error at the session-host logon stage, distinct from the gateway and MFA leg everyone initially suspected. The investigation spanned eight months across three separate ticketing systems, along the way catching a phishing-simulation email mistaken for a real incident and identifying a single orphaned virtual desktop that was silently holding capacity behind a stale pool metric, reclaimed only after confirming no live owner would be affected. Separately designed and executed a zero-downtime cutover to a dedicated static egress IP, sequencing the allow-list before the attach to avoid any access gap; a related vCPU quota increase for the desktop pool was filed and closed by a different engineer, not him.

Terraform Production Incident Recovery
Terraform Production Incident Recovery

During an evening production deploy under time pressure, disabled delete protection to force a Terraform resource recreation and applied the change without redeploying the dependent service afterward. The recreated resource regenerated its service credentials, and the dependent service kept authenticating with the stale ones until alerting caught the failed requests within minutes. Identified the root cause as his own change, not a coincidence, diagnosed it to the underlying mechanism rather than the symptom, and fixed the process so the same failure class could not recur.

Multi-Instance Jenkins Incident Coverage
Multi-Instance Jenkins Incident Coverage

Held a three-instance production Jenkins estate alone for a full week, diagnosing a "VM unreachable" alert as a network allow-list miss rather than an outage via a full DNS/ICMP/TCP/SSH probe matrix, and bisecting an expired SSH key silently blocking two engineers' builds down to its exact expiry window from build history alone. Weeks later, correctly distinguished a second, superficially identical credential failure as a different root cause, and documented plainly what was and wasn't fixable on that side.

Token-Based RBAC Permission Evaluator
Token-Based RBAC Permission Evaluator

Built and unit-tested a token-based RBAC permission evaluation tool after discovering that a cloud portal's displayed permissions and a live access token can legitimately disagree about effective access, modeling nine real Azure role shapes including PIM-eligible versus PIM-activated. While building it, caught two scripting bugs in the underlying query logic, one of which scored roles wrong in the unsafe direction ahead of a planned 76-resource production write. Caught and fixed before the write executed, turning a routine access-review script into a verified safety gate.

App Service Autoscale Stabilization
App Service Autoscale Stabilization

Diagnosed a documented Azure scaling anti-pattern on a live production App Service plan: scaling out on CPU-or-memory but scaling in on CPU-only, letting sustained memory pressure permanently block scale-in on a plan that had flapped over 2,000 times in a week. Designed a symmetric four-rule fix and deployed it across 76 non-production plans spanning 22 subscriptions with zero deployment failures, verifying every setting by re-reading it back from Azure. Presented the change alone at a Change Advisory Board after discovering an undocumented approval gate mid-week.

Key Vault Purge Protection Governance
Key Vault Purge Protection Governance

Designed and rolled out policy-as-code remediation for Key Vault purge protection across two affiliated Azure tenants, treating the control's irreversibility as the central design constraint. An 8-round adversarial review caught a naive full-resource replace that would have silently dropped a property from every live policy assignment. Rehearsed the full audit-to-enforce-to-rollback lifecycle on an isolated subscription first, then self-audited the finished rollout and corrected his own coverage figure before anyone else caught it.

Virtual Network Manager IPAM Automation
Virtual Network Manager IPAM Automation

Designed and shipped four reusable Bicep modules automating IP address management via Azure Virtual Network Manager, replacing manual CIDR allocation with policy-driven automatic subnet assignment. Verified the deployment end to end in an isolated subscription before merge: a clean sub-2-minute run auto-assigned address blocks to a VNet and all three subnets, with a legacy VNet deploying from the same module in the same run with zero regression.

Service Principals to Workload Identity
Service Principals to Workload Identity

Migrated pipeline authentication from long-lived service-principal secrets to federated Workload Identity, with no flag-day. Verified the credentials being retired still worked before removal, and shipped a backward-compatible rollout so each service moved on its own schedule. Zero secrets left in the pipeline.

Cross-Tenant OIDC Root-Cause
Cross-Tenant OIDC Root-Cause

Four Logic Apps migrating across two tenants on the same morning; two failed with a Graph 404. A 20-agent, 3-round investigation traced it to an OIDC domain-ownership change after an acquisition, verified independently against the live tenant. Clean same-day rollback and a decision framed for the architect.

CDN Edge HTTPS Root-Cause
CDN Edge HTTPS Root-Cause

A production service behind a CDN edge returned HTTP 200 but HTTPS 503. Isolated the fault to the edge with layered curl / dig / openssl probes, proved TLS terminated cleanly client-to-edge, and located the real fault at the origin gateway's 443 listener. Disabled the check on one resource first, so the fix could not bounce a live app.

SQL Transactional Replication Ownership
SQL Transactional Replication Ownership

Took live ownership of an undocumented, business-critical SQL transactional-replication flow (Managed Instance to Azure SQL) after the owning team rolled off. Built a recovery ladder runnable under pressure, onboarded a new enterprise client, and left the runbook the prior team never wrote. New client came up at 00:00:00 latency.

What-If Twin for a Blind Pipeline
What-If Twin for a Blind Pipeline

A production deploy pipeline had no dry-run, so green runs were the only signal. Built a what-if twin that validates against real subscriptions with the same identity that deploys. It caught a defect a green run had hidden: a tag re-write on an existing resource group that violated a touch-nothing constraint.

Self-Service Ephemeral Environments
Self-Service Ephemeral Environments

A GitHub Actions system that plans by default, gates apply behind two separate confirmations, arms its own budget alarms, and tears everything back down to zero with an audited teardown. About $0.15 per cycle. Lets a small team rehearse real infrastructure end-to-end without waiting on anyone.

Spaced-Repetition Exam-Prep Platform
Spaced-Repetition Exam-Prep Platform

Solo-built and rebuilt four times over 18 months, ending in a full architectural reset onto Next.js, PostgreSQL, and Prisma completed in three days. Implements a working spaced-repetition algorithm and an event-sourced XP and streak engine with an append-only transaction log, backed by nearly 1,200 seeded questions and 320+ passing tests. Infrastructure runs on Terraform-provisioned Azure with a destroy workflow that backs up the database before tearing infrastructure down; an earlier self-hosted iteration on a personal Proxmox server surfaced and fixed a MongoDB/CPU-instruction-set incompatibility.

Automated Video Production Pipeline
Automated Video Production Pipeline

Built and operates the full content pipeline behind a 118-video public catalog: headless-browser frame capture at 12fps, an FFmpeg assembly stage with broadcast-standard loudness normalization, and single-request text-to-speech generation to preserve natural prosody across a monologue. A separate catalog-management layer pulls the channel's own published videos back down, runs a deduplication pass across the full catalog, and uses a multi-agent fan-out pass to match each shipped video back to the project it was built from. Applies the same audit discipline across his content-production practice as on infrastructure work: a documented post-mortem after an early failed render on a sister pipeline, and an explicit budget cap on a later series that landed spend at exactly the target figure.
