From DevOps Engineer to Indie Hacker
I've spent 8 years keeping production systems running at scale. Built infrastructure for successful startups. Managed on-call rotations. Optimized costs. Prevented outages.
Now I'm exploring what problems are worth solving with software. This site documents the journey—customer interviews, failed experiments, technical decisions, and (hopefully) eventual product-market fit.
