Passionate about pushing technical boundaries, I focus my research and open-source contributions on three core pillars that shape the future of technology.
AI
Active contributor to the open-source AI ecosystem, focusing on model optimization, local inference performance, and multi-modal architectures.
Automation
Designing advanced smart home infrastructures with custom integrations and privacy-focused domestic ecosystems.
Robotics
Researching autonomous navigation, sensor fusion, and real-time processing using frameworks like ROS2 for experimental hardware platforms.

Here are a few personal projects and experimental labs I currently host and maintain. While many others from my career are now private or offline, these are the ones still live today. You can check my LinkedIn profile to see my other past or future experiments.
Most of the underlying services are self-hosted on a lightweight 3-node low-power home cluster.
The HNPaper
An experimental project focused on indexing and generating AI-based news summaries. It leverages LLM for content understanding and automation, along with TTS pipelines for audio rendering of daily insights. It processes daily trends to provide concise summaries, evolving rapidly as a testing ground for automated content curation.
Docker Monitor
A lightweight, modern Docker management dashboard and CLI, built with Rust and React as a highly optimized, retro-styled alternative to Portainer. Designed for engineers who need comprehensive container observability and management without the bloat. [demo possible]
Dropflow
A self-hosted, high-performance file-sharing platform designed for speed and security. Built with Rust, it allows for reliable massive file uploads via unique, expiring links. This mini-project was created with the ambition of making my friends stop using WeTransfer or other platforms.
sh@tty
A private AI chatbot designed to assist with various tasks while strictly respecting data privacy. It leverages multiple models from Hugging Face via llama.cpp to ensure a completely local and secure conversational experience.
La Case
A self-hosted web UI for yt-dlp, built with Rust and React to make everything effortless: automated subscriptions, real-time progress via SSE, and a single-binary backend shipping the SPA out of the box. [demo possible]
voxify
A high-performance tool developed in Rust that transforms various content formats into high-quality audio. Available as a Web version, a Desktop application for Windows and Linux, and a CLI tool, it generates synchronized VTT subtitles and word-level timestamps, enabling precise audio-visual alignment for complex content.
Planning Poker
A web application designed to help agile teams estimate task complexity. Using a real-time card system, it encourages simultaneous reveals and team consensus, streamlining the sprint planning process.
HNPaper
A real-time search engine for Hacker News built on Elasticsearch. Developed in just 4 hours as a live training demo, it showcases how to handle and index real-time data streams efficiently.
Levenshtein Visualizer
An interactive tool that illustrates how the Levenshtein algorithm calculates edit distance. It features a step-by-step matrix animation showing the cost of insertions, deletions, and substitutions required to transform strings.
