Work Experience


LiteBit
Backend Developer

Worked as a backend developer for a crypto-trading platform, primarily using TypeScript and C#. Other tools used include Docker, Kubernetes, and Retool. Lots of work was centered around performance-oriented programming, security, and scalability.

Humanwave
Fullstack Developer

Worked as a fullstack developer writing payroll software. This included overseeing and executing the Python2 to Python3 transition, as well as migrating the legacy codebase from Jinja rendering to VueJS. Lots of work was also done handling proper localization, interfacing with external services and APIs, and bringing huge performance improvements to the product.

My Cool Stuff


andy
A Better, Simple Shell

A fully functioning command-line shell written in C. Supports associative arrays like Awk, pipes, redirections, and the other standard shell features, along with a more sane syntax and significantly safer semantics. Many scripts I run every day on my personal machines are written in Andy.

mmv
Move Mapped/Multiple Files

A tool written in Rust to rename- and move files in bulk. This is in my opinion the most extensible and most effective file renaming- and moving tool ever created.

totp
ARM64- and x64-powered 2-Factor Authentication Codes

A tool to generate 2-factor authentication codes written in C. All algorithms are written by hand and both inline assembly and CPU intrinsics are used in order to produce highly-efficient code, most notably this project takes advantage of SHA-1 extensions to the ARM64 and x64 architectures to efficiently compute SHA-1 hashes.

smallbrain
Optimizing Brainfuck Interpreter in x86 Assembly

A Brainfuck interpreter written in x86-64 assembly that performs code compilation, optimization, and proper error reporting.
