I have a PhD in Nano Technologies and an MSc in Electronics Engineering. I spent years moving individual atoms around, then discovered that ones and zeros are far easier to push. These days I’m a programmer, data scientist and architect, and lately the person who gets woken up when production is on fire (SecOps).
What drives me is understanding a system all the way down: from the transistor to the kernel to the cluster. Once I know how something works, I can make it do what it was designed for, or, more fun, what it wasn’t designed for!
ls ~/toolbox
hardware/
- Various microcontroller families (STM32 is my go-to)
- If it has silicon and a debug port, I can probably make it run something its datasheet never imagined
cloud/
- AWS daily: someone else's hardware, my problem
- Google Cloud, Azure, DigitalOcean: different consoles, same 3am outages
software/
- Fluent in Linux, conversational in Windows
- Code polyglot: C, C++, Qt, Python, Terraform
- JavaScript and Go when needed, Assembly because understanding machines in their native language matter
ai-and-data/
- Training machine learning models since before the TensorFlow era
- Computer vision, back when making a computer recognise a cat was still impressive
research/
- A paper with 218+ citations, basically, academic street cred
- The less famous ones live in the publication list
tl;dr
I take machines apart to see how they think, then put them back together slightly better, or at least slightly more interesting. Knowledge is power, but root access is a close second.
