Precision engineering,
distilled.

Building systems that value clarity over complexity, where every line of code earns its place.


Work

Selected projects reflecting a commitment to reduction and rigor. Each represents a problem stripped to its core, then solved with the minimum viable surface area.

Lattice

A distributed task scheduler built on event sourcing. Zero external dependencies. Handles 40k jobs/sec on a single node with sub-millisecond p99 latency.

Rust / 2025

Sigil

Cryptographic identity layer for decentralized applications. Ed25519 key derivation with deterministic wallet generation. Audited, minimal attack surface.

Go / 2024

Null Set

A static site generator that produces valid HTML from structured plaintext. No templates, no config files, no build step. Input text, output pages.

TypeScript / 2024

Meridian

Real-time geospatial indexing engine using Hilbert curves for spatial partitioning. Sub-linear query complexity over billion-point datasets.

C++ / 2023

Approach

Software should be legible, not clever. Every function should read like a well-constructed sentence: clear subject, direct verb, obvious object. Abstraction serves comprehension, not vanity.

I build with constraints by choice. Fewer dependencies mean fewer failure modes. Smaller APIs mean larger possibility spaces. The goal is always the same: find the irreducible core of the problem, then implement exactly that -- nothing more.


Background

Over a decade of systems-level engineering across distributed infrastructure, developer tooling, and protocol design. Previously contributed to open-source compilers, network stacks, and cryptographic libraries.

Focused on performance-critical systems where correctness is non-negotiable and simplicity is the primary engineering constraint.
