I test the hardware and software tools, products, and services that actually move the needle. I share what works, what doesn't, and how to get the most from them.
From hands-on tool reviews to consulting — here's how I create value.
Python-powered data pipelines, dashboards, and SQL analytics for business intelligence.
In-depth, tested reviews of AI tools, productivity software, and cloud services — no fluff, just results.
I implement AI agents and automation pipelines that save hours per week. Available for consulting engagements.
Static sites, Firebase deployments, GitHub Actions pipelines — fast and cost-effective web infrastructure.
Tutorials and guides that bridge the gap between theory and practical implementation for engineers.
Open to sponsored reviews and affiliate partnerships for tools I actually use and believe in.
Have a project in mind? I'm always happy to connect and talk it through, in person or virtually. Sometimes I can help and sometimes I can't, but the conversation is always welcome.
Firmware in C, including embedded Linux, written against the part's datasheet and errata. I work across vendors and boards (STM32, BeagleBone Black, Raspberry Pi, DE10-Nano, Arduino-compatible) and across buses: UART, RS-232, RS-485, I²C, SPI, CAN, LIN, USB, and Ethernet. I also plan how the device gets updated after it ships, using the chip's ROM bootloader, USB DFU, or a custom bootloader.
Not sure it's a fit? Let's talk anyway, in person or virtually.
Let's Talk →The software a hardware product needs around it, not just the firmware inside it. Desktop apps in C# and Python for Windows, macOS, and Linux: configurators that need no installer, bench utilities, and test-station and production software.
Not sure it's a fit? Let's talk anyway, in person or virtually.
Let's Talk →Custom test fixtures built from swappable units and modules, plus station software that runs the whole test with no operator. It checks power-up and current limits and sleep current for battery products, logs every result, and verifies the design against its specification.
Not sure it's a fit? Let's talk anyway, in person or virtually.
Let's Talk →Old code with no documentation, or a binary with no source? I can work out what it does, document it, and help you maintain it, port it, or replace it.
Not sure it's a fit? Let's talk anyway, in person or virtually.
Let's Talk →Honest deep-dives into the tools and services I use.
