Building Sovereign AI Platforms & Escaping the Cloud Tax.
I help startups and SMEs escape the "Hyperscaler Trap" (AWS/Azure). I don't sell hours of configuration; I sell Capital Efficiency.
My engineering philosophy is "Boring is Better": I reject unnecessary complexity (like premature Kubernetes) in favor of robust, maintainable, and cost-effective architectures.
- 📉 Cloud-Exit Strategy (FinOps): Migrating workloads to Hetzner Bare Metal, typically cutting monthly OpEx by 40-60%.
- 🤖 Sovereign AI Factory: Deploying private, stateful AI Agents (DeepSeek/Llama) on owned hardware. Zero data leakage, zero token costs.
- 🛡️ Edge Security: Enforcing OWASP/NIST compliance at the ingress using custom Caddy + Coraza WAF builds.
I maintain a strict, pragmatic stack designed for Observability, Security, and low TCO.

While most of my work involves confidential infrastructure under NDA, I maintain key public repositories to demonstrate architectural standards:
- NIST Hardening Suite: Ansible role for turning Debian 13 into a fortress. Implements NIST 800-53 controls (SSH Hardening, AuditD) and active defense via CrowdSec.
- FinOps Alert CLI: Type-safe Python tool (Typer/Pydantic) to audit Hetzner Cloud infrastructure, detecting "zombie" resources and budget drifts.
- Hybrid Swarm Protocol: Reference architecture for Split-Horizon clusters spanning OCI (Edge) and Hetzner (Core) with zero-latency consensus issues.
- Caddy WAF Edition: Production-hardened Caddy build integrated with Coraza WAF and OWASP Core Rule Set. Secure by default, container-native.
- Chatbot Architecture Blueprint: Educational blueprint demonstrating evolutionary architecture (React 19 + PHP 8.4), Clean Code principles, and automated CI/CD pipelines.
"Efficiency is the only metric that matters."
