Systems engineer in Los Angeles, California. I work on distributed systems, low-latency market data, trading infrastructure, AI runtimes and search, mostly in C++, Rust, Go and Python.
Most of my public work sits where those layers meet: collecting and processing data, coordinating services, and making complex systems usable through APIs and native interfaces. I prefer explicit limitations and reproducible measurements over claims.

| Project | What it is |
|---|---|
| prod-code | Remote code intelligence server for AI coding agents. Your checkout is mirrored to a LAN build node that keeps a warm analyzer (rust-analyzer, gopls, clangd, TypeScript, pyright, sourcekit-lsp) and runs builds and tests there; agents reach it as MCP tools, editors as a language server. prod.codes |
| kyb | Know Your Business: a git-backed, searchable knowledge base and incident tracker that serves as shared memory for a fleet of AI agents across sessions and machines. kybmemory.com · crates.io |
| rapidfire | Async MPMC and MPSC channels for Rust, built for WebSocket fan-in, trading bots and other message pipelines; the default build depends only on std. docs.rs · crates.io |
| ringfire | Zero-copy, lock-free shared-memory IPC ring buffer and state bus for Linux, the cross-process counterpart to rapidfire; since v0.5.0 a ring can be mirrored to other hosts with the same sequence numbers. docs.rs · crates.io |
| tako | GPU-accelerated terminal for macOS 14+ and iOS 17+: a pure-Rust emulation engine with a native Metal renderer, also embeddable as a Swift package. takocore.com |
| mitts | Rust-first build system with a machine-wide, content-addressed artifact cache and explicit input tracking; it reads your existing Cargo manifests. Pre-release, Linux and macOS only, no remote cache yet. mittsbuild.com |
| xref | XRef: Ultra Blazing Fast, zero-index cross-references, .eh_frame function discovery, struct layout recovery, backward program slicing, cross-build diffing and goto-free structured pseudo-C for x86-64 ELF and thin x86-64 Mach-O binaries, in pure safe Rust, including stripped Rust release binaries. Since v0.3.0 it also inspects live Linux x86-64 processes (memory maps, memscan, probes, watchpoints) tied to the same static evidence, with opt-in live MCP tooling next to the local read-only MCP server. ARM64, PE, fat Mach-O and compact-unwind-only inputs are out of scope; probes and watchpoints need privileged perf access. xrefcode.com · v0.3.0 · crates.io · DOI v0.3.0 (concept 10.5281/zenodo.23878789) |
