I have built Emfirge, A Cloud Infrastructure Reasoning platform that helps teams understand attack paths, blast radius, risky configurations, before they deploy the infra and how to fix them.
I also built Carto, an open-source tool that helps AI agents understand codebases. It maps architecture, detects domains, traces dependencies, and shows what parts of a system might be affected by a change. It's giving AI the ability to think architecturally.
I have been working on cloud infrastructure, security, developer tools, DevOps, platform engineering, and backend system from the past 2 years. Also got seleced in Accelerator program Canopy by Founders Inc.

Looking for freelance clients/projects and part-time opportunities.
Would love to work with universities, research institutes, public good non-profits, and so forth but open to working with all kinds of wonderful people!
Work-life balance is my goal over getting rich; if you support my lifestyle then I am happy to reciprocate with my time & skills.
At home, you can find me homesteading and exploring merging tech knowledge with the natural, real world. Currently refreshing my old electronics skills to build sensors and automation systems for various projects around the house (e.g. growing food, rain water collection, etc..)
I have recently traveled to Boston a few times (its ~3 hours by train) and its amazing! Would love to make some connections down there as well. I can't come down every day but am open-minded to dropping in every once in a while.
I also really want to check out MIT (swap meet & library!), FSF, and all of this super cool culture in Boston that was too far away when I used to live in Ohio.
