About Me
I am someone who cannot leave a technical problem unresolved until it works seamlessly. Almost everything I know technically, I taught myself – because I wanted to build something that didn't exist yet: a custom Android system for a device the manufacturer had long abandoned, or a homelab server built from decommissioned hardware that grew into a full personal infrastructure.
Today that means: administering Linux and Windows servers, planning and securing networks, hosting containerized services, and automating builds via CI/CD pipelines. This is complemented by the hardware side – from soldering and microsoldering repairs to custom embedded electronics projects. What drives me is not just individual technologies, but understanding how a system truly works under the hood and having the persistence to achieve a clean solution.
In my Business Information Systems studies, I combine this technical depth with organizational structure: understanding requirements, documenting them clearly, and communicating complex technical concepts so they are easy to understand even without an IT background.

Projects & Community
Moun Kernel
Custom Android kernel featuring four configurable CPU governor profiles to optimize battery life and performance. Automated nightly builds powered by Jenkins.
Resurrection Remix
Official AOSP-based Custom ROM builds for end-of-life devices, maintaining up to 10 devices simultaneously: device trees, vendor binaries, and build debugging.
Awarded XDA Recognized Developer title on May 9, 2018.
Homelab & Self-Hosting
Custom-built homelab server running Unraid with virtual machines and Docker containers: Nginx reverse proxy, network-wide Pi-hole DNS, Dynamic DNS, photo and media services. Home Assistant controls smart home devices locally, exposed securely via HTTPS over custom domain. This website runs on it as well.
Client Radio App Customization
Client project: customized a commercial Android radio app to match client branding – logos, color schemes, text, themes, and navigation – and added custom features including video splash screen, direct web/social links, streaming API integration, and Firebase/OneSignal push notifications.
Source code private (commercial client project).
RFID Security System
Graduation capstone project at Vocational College for Information & Communication Technology (Grade: Very Good / 1.0): Arduino/ESP-based access control system with RFID readers – from circuit design and wiring to firmware and written documentation.
AI Agents & LLM Tooling
Ongoing practical work with Large Language Models: leveraging GPT, Gemini, and Claude via API and OpenRouter, plus locally hosted models via Ollama and DeepSeek. Built custom agent configurations, multi-provider sub-agents, and automated workflows for recurring tasks.
Personal Tech Video Channel
Produced personal video content on Android system software and PC hardware over several years: technical explainers on custom ROMs, Project Treble, OS installations, and CPU/hardware comparisons. Solo production covering scriptwriting, camera, video editing, audio, motion graphics, and live streaming. Core mission: explaining complex technical topics clearly to non-technical audiences.
