Embedded Programming

Arduino · MicroPython
  • Building Arduino-based systems for the Lehigh University Space Initiative — wiring sensors, communication modules and mechanical mechanisms.
  • Interactive BBC micro:bit programs in MicroPython using light sensing and UART serial communication.

Self-hosted AI

llama.cpp · CUDA · Tailscale
  • Run Gemma 4 26B on a CUDA-accelerated Ubuntu server, reachable remotely over HTTP via Tailscale.
  • Traced an outage to a hardware fault; integrated LLM tool calling and web search into an app backend.

Cloud Infrastructure

Oracle Cloud · AWS · Cloudflare
  • Deploy and administer multiple cloud servers: setup, networking and troubleshooting.
  • Low-latency infrastructure for detecting cross-market mispricings between Kalshi and Polymarket.
  • Run custom-domain email for theoweld.com with SPF, DKIM and DMARC — and this site.
